I’m not sure what you mean by “weaker” but I don’t think that is an issue. Latency, as far as I know, mostly affect miners, they risk mining orphan blocks when if they try to build on top of a block that isn’t the most recent, but I’m not sure how any other aspect of the network suffers from the latency. As a matter of fact, there are a lot of nodes that are only connected to the network periodically, they just catch up when they can, no affect on rest of the network as far as I know.
