    Uh yikes. Mexico has issues but they also have real institutions too. Further, who are you or I to say? Even if such issues exist, it’s already a system in failure-state. Returning to the host country is the first step towards a success-state, even if internal theft happens afterwards.

    Put this way: as long as the home nation has an appropriate facility, the artifact should be returned promptly.

      I agree with most of your points, but not this:

      Further, who are you or I to say?

      I don’t have a say, as I neither have artifacts nor am of the relevant culture. You may speak for yourself. But others may have a say.

      However, this could be interpreted as the facilities with the artifacts currently, have no say. They very much do. Discounting them is also wrong.

      We can all discuss the moral grounds, which should include which groups get a say.

      Cheers

        Not sure what you mean. We are all from places, which may be missing artefacts.
