Robert Zoellick had a very interesting column in the Wall Street Journal called “Leave No Country Behind in the Post-Covid recovery”

Robert Zoellick is someone that I trust: he is a former World Bank President, former U.S. Trade Representative, and former Deputy Secretary of State.

Here are 2 sentences that I thought were important:

• “The U.S. should recognize that its healthy recovery--from both disease and economic disaster--depends on revivals elsewhere.” That is, we’re all in this together.
• “Countries will give their own citizens first priority for vaccines and treatments. But they can also commit support for the most vulnerable in developing countries.”

Discuss either the 2 sentences I highlighted or some other points he made that you found interesting.
