The US has rejected a Canadian proposal to establish a task force that would tackle Russia’s so-called “shadow fleet” of oil tankers, according to reports last night.
Canada, which has the current Group of Seven presidency, proposed the measure ahead of a meeting of G7 foreign ministers in Quebec later this week.
In negotiations to agree a joint statement on maritime issues, the US is pushing to strengthen language about China while watering down wording on Russia, the reports said.
You are right, but as citizens in nations, we can only demand solutions at the national level. Right now in that regard the problems are with the oligarchs in Russia and the oligarchs in the US, and they have control each of their respective countries. We are very well aware that there are rich assholes willing to play to Putin’s tune in many of our countries and that they are financing opposition parties considerably.
When oligarchs in russia behave like Musk, they soon fall out of the window.
Putin is the biggest oligarch in Russia.
We keep limiting ourselves to just citizens in nations, we’re going to keep repeating the same patterns nations repeat. Genocide still happens, war still happens, and the collective problem of climate change looms large. No one nation, not even America, is a match for the power these corporations have. We have no newspapers, free press is close to dead, and we’re uneducated. Anyone pinning their hopes on America figuring anything out doesn’t know how misinformed we are. If we can’t come together now, when we’re finally all connected, with the ability to instantly translate each other’s words, is it crazy to think we can do a little better?
