as Fox News waited for the Trump/Putin meeting to begin, all the presenters assembled mentioned “meddling” non-stop, as if that was the whole purpose of the meeting. it was truly sickening.

well worth noting who was meeting around the same time as Putin/Trump meeting, and despite US paying 17% of World Bank funding:

Hailing the sound long-term cooperation between China and the World Bank, Xi said China appreciated the World Bank for supporting the Belt and Road Initiative, promoting capital increase and shareholding reforms in recent years, and improving the representation and voting power of emerging markets and developing countries, including China.

“The World Bank is an important force in safeguarding multilateralism and economic globalization,” Xi said. “China is willing to deepen global development partnership with the World Bank, strengthen trade liberalization and facilitation, jointly promote global poverty alleviation and sustainable development, safeguard an open world economy and build a community of a shared future for humanity.”...

The world today is a global village. Despite the constant appearance of unilateralism and protectionism, the blended interests and shared destiny of different countries and economic globalization are irresistable, and win-win cooperation represents the general trend, Xi stressed.

Kim expressed gratitude to China for its long-term great support to the World Bank.

15 Sept 2016: Financial Times: Jim Yong Kim heads for second term as World Bank President
by Shawn Donnan in Washington
Jim Yong Kim is heading for another five-year term as president of the World Bank after no other candidates emerged during a hurried nomination process.

But critics warn that both Mr. Kim and the World Bank’s legitimacy risk being further damaged by the US’s decision to speed through the Korean-born American’s reappointment before President Barack Obama leaves office early next year. They also argue that the lack of other candidates is a symoptom of how many big emerging economies such as China are turning away from the Washington-based lender to focus on their own new institutions...

The US and other major shareholders have ignored such calls, arguing for urgency and for a move before November’s US presidential election and a possible victory by Donald Trump, the Republican candidate running on a largely isolationist platform...

Mr. Kim has responded by studiously courting the leadership in Beijing and other emerging capitals and vowing to work with those new institutions. That has helped him win the backing of big developing economies including China, India and Brazil for a second term.

Technically the World Bank is part of the United Nations system, but its governance structure is different: each institution in the World Bank Group is owned by its member governments, which subscribe to its basic share capital, with votes proportional to shareholding...


the Deep State/globalists are in a fight for their lives.
