Cancun Cacophony
The Gulf is heating up! The Gulf of Mexico, that is. With arguments about agricultural subsidies, temporary workers, and more, the World Trade Organization meeting in Cancun has some surprises in store after Doha and Seattle. We’ll discuss whether any lasting change will come out of this WTO meeting, and what impact any new WTO agreements could have here, and around the globe.
