(Georgia) Government Halts Next WTO Talks With Russia

I think this is an empty threat, at this point, but who can be sure?

Georgia said that, in retaliation for Russian sanctions, it was blocking the next round of talks on Moscow's bid to join the World Trade Organization.

The next meeting of the WTO panel working with Russia on its potential membership was postponed indefinitely at the Caucasian nation's request, the Foreign Ministry said.

2. The World Trade Organization is overrated

It's nothing more than a tool used to bash open a country to be exploited by multinationals. You are made to follow "trade normalization" regimens, which are nothing more than schemes to make it easier for these corporations to exploit your resources and your people's labor.
