Asylum is considered a basic human right. I've posted elsewhere: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5974330

Anyway, it really doesn't make sense to talk about asylum in relation to the country being fled. The declaration is a statement of what the destination state should do when it recognizes a case of persecution. 'Persecution' is inherently a subjective concept.
