In my opinion, it is not the idea of having a dispute resolution body that is the problem. I think it's necessary and important. Trying to strengthen it is also a good thing. However, the questions we are asking about the current role of the WTO in the world are much more fundamental.
That the WTO is correcting some of its mistakes is interesting and should be done, but our concern is that it is not making the change in direction that is needed now. The record of the WTO is not very good, and that needs to be emphasized. It is not great for the workers of the world, nor for the environment. But all of this stems from the WTO's initial and fundamental vocation, which is to liberalize trade as much as possible. I think we are no longer there.
Even Klaus Schwab, the great organizer of the World Economic Forum in Davos, says we have to end neoliberalism. We are not there anymore. We need more regulation and a way to distribute wealth.
If the only question the WTO asks itself is how to perpetuate itself and improve its internal mechanisms, and it doesn't ask questions about its vocation, in my opinion, there is a problem. If it doesn't listen to the criticism that is levelled at it and doesn't take into account the problems that are created by the system that it has installed, there is a problem.
