1987: Classification of the text 1998: Agreement on persons temporarily staying in Chad as part of official obligations related to humanitarian demining activities 2005: agreement on the status of United States personnel in Chad The political issue of SOFAs is complicated by the fact that many host countries have mixed feelings towards foreign bases on their soil, and requests for the renegotiation of sofa are often combined with requests for the total departure of foreign troops. While the United States and host countries generally agree on what a crime is, many U.S. observers believe that the host country`s justice systems give defendants much weaker protection than the United States and that the courts of the host country may be subject to popular pressure to render a guilty verdict; In addition, U.S. soldiers who have been sent abroad should not be forced to give up the rights conferred on them by the Bill of Rights. On the other hand, observers from the host country, who have no local equivalent to the Bill of Rights, often believe that it is an unequivocal excuse to demand special treatment and that they resemble the extraterritorial agreements demanded by Western countries during colonialism. A host country where such a mindset is prevalent, South Korea, itself has strength in Kyrgyzstan and has negotiated a SOFA that grants its soldiers full immunity from prosecution by Kyrgyz authorities for any crime, far beyond the privileges that many South Koreans have challenged in their country`s SOFA with the United States.
