@KlausGerdGiesen that's not the point. Everyone has right to defend themselves. Iran has uranium reserves and it wanted to use them for trade and energy. Which was completely denied. There are agencies and international cooperation to manage exactly that. But instead of strengthening and empowering these institutions to remove the biased of justice, #USA is on a march to dismantle every multilateral institution from #UN to #WTO to #IAEA and push for imperialism like it is 19th century.

The OECD’s detailed peer-review system is key to global economic stability, and Japan’s strategic support can help preserve its institutional capacity amid rising geopolitical and policy pressures. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/02/24/world/oecd-matters-more-than-ever/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #marcorubio #us #donaldtrump #munichsecurityconference #nato #wto #oecd #g7 #g20 #globaleconomy

In a fragmented world, the OECD matters more than ever

In a global marketplace, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development remains essential.

Game theory shows that Trump’s tariff strategy invites retaliation that leaves all sides worse off and damages the global economy. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/02/10/world/trump-is-not-a-game-theorist/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #donaldtrump #tariffs #gametheory #trade #china #wto
