Laccs  lOMC mest refus parce que je d fends les droits des personnes

A statement by Friends of the Earth International denouncing the Argentine government's decision to revoke the accreditation of civil society representatives, including the organization itself, for a World Trade Organization (WTO) meeting in Buenos Aires in December 2017.

• The Argentine government revoked the accreditation of Friends of the Earth International and 60 other individuals from trade unions, peasant organizations, and consumer rights groups for the WTO meeting held in Buenos Aires from December 10 to 13, 2017. The official justification was that the group had "lancé des appels explicites à des protestations violentes sur les médias sociaux, souhaitant créer des scènes de chaos et d’intimidation", a claim the organization denies.
• Friends of the Earth International argues that WTO policies hinder climate action and development. Specifically, it cites the WTO's ruling against India's National Solar Mission, which aimed to provide energy to millions via 100 GW of solar power, for creating local jobs. Additionally, the organization claims WTO policies prevent developing countries from using public stockpiling programs, which impacts food sovereignty and livelihoods for peasants and indigenous people, while allowing the US and EU to heavily subsidize global markets for agribusiness.
• The document highlights a lack of transparency in major trade agreements. It notes that the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), involving 16 Asian countries, is being negotiated in "un secret presque complet" with limited public participation. Similarly, the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) was criticized for being negotiated in secret and for its potential devastating effects on people and the environment.
• The author contrasts the restrictive nature of trade negotiations with the United Nations Working Group on Business and Human Rights, where civil society is treated as an active partner and experts are permitted to attend and contribute to sessions.
