Den anden ting, som er endnu mere skuffende, er, at der i Monterrey ikke blev sagt et ord om de nødvendige strukturreformer, når det gælder os selv, protektionismen inden for landbrugs- og tekstilsektoren og USA's protektionisme inden for stålsektoren, for slet ikke at tale om de nødvendige reformer i disse lande, når det gælder retsstaten og de første skridt i retning af en demokratisk udvikling.
Secondly, even more disappointingly, there was not one word at Monterrey about the structural reforms that need to be carried out, from the dismantling of the protectionist policies we apply to our own markets such as agriculture and textiles, to the removal of the US protection of its steel market, not to mention the reforms that need to be carried out in the HIPC countries to facilitate the rule of law and the first steps towards democratic development.
