Do not use 2 letter country TLDs!
ICANN is certainly not perfect, but there is a difference between the automatic control that countries have over their ccTLD and the control they have through ICANN.
The US regularly seize domains, even those with foreign registrars. I don’t feel that any tld is immune from this. Sure there are some TLDs more at risk than others, like .af being in control of the Taliban, but I’d also say US controlled TLDs are not the least at risk.
