The United States Chamber of Commerce is cheering the newly confirmed head of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Nigerian economist Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, who has the backing of China.
Okonjo-Iweala, who was opposed by the Trump administration for the top WTO spot, was supported by the Biden administration and received praise on Monday from China’s Commerce Ministry, which said they have “full confidence” in her appointment.
Former U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) Robert Lighthizer previously suggested that the Trump administration did not support Okonjo-Iweala because of her lack of experience with trade issues — the core function of the WTO.

The Chamber of Commerce is in bed with the ChiComs. But we already knew that, didn’t we.
Affirmative action position.
Chamber of ChiComs.
Oh my gosh!...and Nigeria is the leading country for world trade? .....insanity rules....
Nearly a billion dollars a month was missing from oil revenues when she was finance minister.
I swear if you look close enough she and Janet Yellen are interchangeable, you don’t get that level of “effectiveness” just anywhere.
She keeps sending me emails...
LOL!
OMG, she looks like that Star Trek character Whoopie Goldberg used to play, with about 21% of the intelligence of the character (not Whoopie).
Okay, guess America First really was racist. Now that the America Last crowd is supposedly in charge they get to reap the whirlwind. And boy is it coming.
If we hanged every member of the mis-named U.S. Chamber of Commerce it would probably reduce the level of treason in this country substantially.
Wasn’t the WHO Chinese butt boy from Nigeria as well?
The previous WHO head was a man of color from Ethiopia. His first 20 years of life were spent being educated under the rule of the vicious communist, Menqistu’s (sp?) government. The WHO leader was friendly with the Chi-Coms. He also was an expert on maleria, and probably knew about HCQ.
are you comfortable with this?
I swear. You could not make this up in a not too distant past.
Serious people would have laughed.
Well, not anymore. We could just as easily see China, Venezuela, Somalia, or Cuba on the UN Human Rights Council.
Wait...
These world organizations really know how to pick the best.
What’s important is the fact you pointed out.. anot just in bed with the Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce actually is building the house for uniparty to live in, it’s well past time to repeal the 17th Amendment.
I understand.....Frankly there’s good reasons there once were certain limitations as to who be considered for official positions. Cultural backgrounds do make a difference and not usually favorable.
