I do like this line
“The issue is a touchy one for the Bush administration”
And this comment,
“Antigua and Barbuda complained the United States had not complied with the decision and the WTO agreed in July 2006 to look into the matter…”
will it really hold any weigthing at all? We are talking about a small nation, trying to stand up against a superpower.
I mean seriously, what can you do to the US? Little hazy on the recent history here, late nights, but didnt we go to war without the support of the UN Council?
The UN and WTO is great for nations to have a voice and for cross border international legislation, but in reality, if a superpower doesnt like a decision, who is going to stop them from complying, other then your usual international condemenation.
Call me a cynic.
Perhaps perseverance will lead to success, as the old chinese proverb goes “Dripping water can eat through a stone.”
