ESG is a form of neo-colonialism - @sanjeevsanyal
“For example, the European Union says that you can only export green steel to the European Union. And it's not just raw steel; if you're sending cars there or anything made of steel, you have to ensure it's green steel.
But if you dig a little bit deeper, you will discover that the way they define green steel is that you have to manufacture it in a way in which they own all the patents.
If you want to make steel, you have to pay them for those patents, possibly buy machines from them, and only then can you sell stuff back to them. So you see, at every stage, the rules are set in a way in which effectively somebody has neo-colonial control over you.”

A group of militants now have power, military, recognition and may be soon, international legitimacy.
@POTUS it seems your mission was indeed nation build - not for #Afghanistan; for #Taliban.
A group of militants now have weapons, power and you may soon grant them political legitimacy.

Very well said. A few private companies cannot decide who is muted and when. We need norms for sure but democratically set up norms and not privately owned rules.
