Carney Leads Anti-Trump Alliance to Reshape Global Trade
Amidst ongoing disagreements among its 166 members regarding permanent tariff-free status for e-commerce and digital trade, the WTO faces a critical juncture. On the sidelines of the MC14 conference in Yaoundé, the EU and the CPTPP bloc are set to propose a strategy to either salvage the existing organization or establish a new trade order. This initiative, bolstered by recent calls for reform and potential mediation between key economic players, aims to empower the WTO to make decisions and advance global trade initiatives.
