thanks 🙂 its great to have a civil discussion on the internet. What i mean about the first part is, that as your first point stated and my first answer to the discussion at hand stated, agreement proposals have to be done by countries with some kind of factor (yours was population size, mine were economical) in order to claim legitimacy. As you rightfully called into question the need for that in your follow-up comment, i wanted to join you and say that the factors should not play a role at all, neither populace or economical, wheb proposing improvements at the global stage.
BRICS, ADB etc. same with NATO, EU etc. were created when multiple interests among a number of states aligned with each other. I would not consider them necessary blocs for multinational agreements on topics differing from their original interest. Since we are talking on one specific topic here, they are of no use.
Any kind of agreement is legitimate as long as all sides of the agreement consider them as such. i dont think, we are talking about coercion here, as the agreement proposed is just that - a proposal. Wpuld you call it coercion if you are approached by a group of people on a topic you have a neutral opinion about? I don't think so. Whether one joins an agreement or not is up to them.
what in the article states, that they are not being inclusive? from my PoV of the article its a joint effort of EU and the CPTPP which totals 40nations
hahaha, war es nicht Bayern, die in der letzten Legislaturperiode eingeführt haben, die möglichen Bauplätze für Windanlagen extrem stark zu begrenzen, effektiv also ihren eigenen Windenergieausbau zu stoppen?
