"There is post G-7 talk of the G-6 pressing ahead ‘(neo)liberally’ without the US somehow, but when Germany and France can’t even decide what to do about Europe, and the UK can’t decide what to do with itself, any plans for a new global order without Washington’s backing --or without the soon-to-be-in-globally-short-supply USD?-- are surely just a pipedream."

"Meanwhile, as the G-7 was ending in calamity the global press completely overlooked that at the same time China, Russia, Iran, and a whole coterie of strongmen held a Shanghai Co-operation Organisation meeting marked by illiberal unity and discipline."
