Sovereignty vs global push --- @Carlos. Well said. The Bigger powers seem to believe that they must set the rules at the expense of others; small economies or even SIDS are of the view that these laws/conventions are simply imposed on them without any avenue for deliberatios. Other countries use these differences/divisions to create an impasse for their benefit while claiming they are working in the interest of smaller nations; the cycle continues, documents are written/counter written and implementation is never close to fruition.
