This event scores high on constitutional damage (A=46.0) due to executive branch unilateral foreign policy pressure that bypasses congressional war powers oversight (rule_of_law:4, separation:3), impacts democratic ally sovereignty (election:3), involves geopolitical coercion (capture:3), and directly affects ongoing violence (violence:4). The policy_change mechanism with international scope and broad population impact justifies strong modifiers (1.25×1.3). Severity reflects moderate durability (deadline-driven, reversible by next admin), high precedent value (executive unilateralism in major conflicts). B-score (26.6) is also elevated due to high media appeal (8), outrage potential (7), strategic timing around Trump admin transition, and clear intentionality indicators suggesting pressure tactic. The D-score (+19.4) technically qualifies as List A, but both scores exceed 25, making this Mixed territory. The constitutional concern centers on executive overreach in foreign policy commitments affecting allied nation and potential abandonment of democratic partner under authoritarian pressure.
