"Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country."

Passports shouldn't be a privilege, and violation of the universal declaration of human rights is pretty serious.

No, it isn’t. It isn’t even legally binding. (And obviously couldn’t be. It would invalidate incarceration and conscription, for example.)

People don't have that right when they are criminals, prisoners don't get to leave their country etc and this is essentially that.
