    authoritarian threats

    This is a meaningless term used in this way. Every state is authoritarian, by definition. The only “state” that isn’t authoritarian is anarchy, and that’s only not an authoritarian state because it’s not a state. Use more accurate terms if you want to make a point.

    Countries are ignoring global authoritarian threats, by ignoring themselves, but that’s probably not the point you were trying to make.
