Economy US Imposes 19% Tariff on Thailand in Major Trade Shift
This is so wrong. The United States global perspective has been based upon allowing Nations to build themselves into democracies and free markets. It has used its Market to service that end. China is the absolute perfect textbook example of this. The policy despite having decades of practice has failed United States is not asking other countries to run surpluses. It is asking for balance trade. The trouble is nations can't even get to zero let alone a surplus. This is entirely disingenuous. Specifically, most nations cannot and will not run surpluses -

Report Aussie Women Get Green Light to Sue Qatar Airways for Airport Ordeal
Qatar Airways cannot simply ignore the Australian Federal Court's (AFC) ruling, as it is a legally binding decision within Australia’s jurisdiction, where the airline operates and has assets. The Full Federal Court’s ruling on July 24, 2025, overturned a prior dismissal, allowing the five Australian women to sue Qatar Airways and Matar, the operator of Hamad International Airport, for the 2020 incident involving non-consensual examinations. The court found that the applicability of the Montreal Convention—specifically whether the incident occurred during "embarking or disembarking"—requires a full trial to determine, and Qatar Airways was ordered to pay the appeal costs.Ignoring the ruling could lead to serious consequences, including: Qatar Airways could face court-ordered damages, injunctions, or other remedies if found liable at trial. Non-compliance might result in enforcement actions, such as asset seizures or fines in Australia. Defying the court could further harm Qatar Airways’ reputation, especially in Australia, a key market where it has recently expanded through a 25% stake in Virgin Australia. Operational Restrictions: The Australian government has previously blocked Qatar Airways’ expansion plans, partly citing the 2020 incident. Ignoring the court could prompt further regulatory scrutiny or restrictions on its operations. International. As a signatory to the Montreal Convention, Qatar is bound by its principles, which allow lawsuits in the passenger’s home jurisdiction (Australia in this case). Ignoring the AFC could complicate Qatar Airways’ compliance with international aviation law. However, Qatar Airways could explore legal avenues to challenge the ruling, such as appealing to Australia’s High Court, though no indication of this has been reported. Alternatively, they might seek a settlement to avoid a trial, as the women’s lawyer, Damian Sturzaker, has noted their openness to resolution outside court. Ignoring the ruling outright, however, is not a practical option given the legal, financial, and reputational risks in Australia and globally. -
