E-DRUG: Oxfam: Rich countries betraying their obligations to help poor countries (2)
-------------------------------------------------
Hi
There is nothing new in the attitude of the rich countries. They are rich by virtue of exploiting the poor ones. Their success to richness has thrived on discrimination, bullying,throttling the aid, sanctions and bombing if nothing else works! No declaration, treaty can succeed till there is change in the mind set of the rich. Since the rich would like to be richer, it obviously will be balanced by poor getting poorer. Medicine affordability is no exception.If it has not improved after 5 years of Doha declaration, it won't work for next 50 years, if attitudes don't change.
