Yeah that's my point, the Oscars used to be about mostly English speaking movies from the US with specific categories for foreign films. Now they're opening into foreign markets more. Now you be the judge if it's good or bad for diversity if the ultimate body to judge any movie anywhere has a fully USA-based panel of judges.

"The most acclaimed movie awards in the world are focusing less on movies from a single country. Could this be bad for diversity?"

No. The answer is that it is not bad for diversity.
