One option could be:
unilaterally
adverb
UK /ˌjuː.nɪˈlæt.ər.əl.i/ US /ˌjuː.nəˈlæt̬.ɚ.əl.i/
in a way that involves doing or deciding something without first asking or
agreeing with another person, group, or country:
- The region is seeking to unilaterally declare independence.
- The rebels continue to attack from their side of the unilaterally determined border.
