5 OS General Assembly In Antigua and Barbuda, with the new Secretary General and the agenda of the day, full of problems
The current session takes place between June 25 and 27 in Antigua and Barbud, a historical case when the host country carries out the presidency of the General Assembly. For the first time in the history of the OS, the general secretary is of Caribbean origin: Albert Ramdin, former Foreign Minister Surinam, who took this position on May 26, 2025, after being elected in March. His presence, along with the role of Ancient and Barbuda as a headquarters -apartment and president, marks the milestone in the appearance and leadership of the Caribbean basin in the hemisphere.
In this new chapter, which is under the secretariat of Ramin and the driving of Antigua and Barbuda, the OAG is faced with several problems: from humanitarian crises in Haiti and Venezuela to the border and migration stress in different regions, in addition to internal financial problems.
Geopolitical tension was not absent. During the first day of sessions, the United States and China collided with veiled reproaches on the influence of external subjects in Latin America.
The deputy state state, Christopher Landau, questioned the reason to be the organization of American states (OSA), which suggests that its existence loses its meaning if it is impossible to effectively decide the crisis in Venezuela. Landau also put on the table a crisis on Haiti, a country that said “plunges into chaos”, and was again surprised: what did this organization do?
These and other issues showed the gray management of the former Secretary General Luis Almagro at the head of the OSA over the past decade; The management of gray, which remains as an inheritance of a weakened organization and decisively questioned by many of his countries -member of the lack of effectiveness and irrelevant.
Faced with this, the agenda of Ramdin seeks to change the organization as an effective actor to promote democracy, human rights and hemispheres in a complex geopolitical context.
International keys
1 Iran: Jamenei reappears and mocks Trump after high fire with Israel
The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Jameni, first appeared publicly since the conflict began with Israel and the United States, saying the “victory” of his country after high fire and openly mockingly from former president Donald Trump, whom he accused of exaggerating the consequences of US explosions. In complex speech, he called the “ridiculous” requirements for the surrender of the United States, minimizing the damage to nuclear facilities, who attacked and emphasized Iran’s response with missiles against the US base in Qatar. Jamenie warned that it would be firmly responding to any new aggression, and the high cost for his enemies, while noting the Iranian national unit and mourned the civilian sacrifices, estimated at more than 600 dead, according to official figures.
2 Raw oil Release inflation and reactive fear of fractions
Brief, but intense, growth in comparison with the price of oil – a disabled person from the tension between Israel and Iran, and then Iran’s symbolic military response – quickly dispelled inflationary fears, returning the attention of central banks to their initial plans. This rebound of lightning did not leave scars in the markets, as for historical maximums, and made it clear that the economic discussion is returning to the usual area: how many abbreviations of the type will be realized by the ECB and the Fed? The market foresees from zero to two reductions for the ECB and from two to three for the Fed until the end of the year, although in July the movements of meetings are expected.
Inside the Fed, such voices as Michelle Bowman are already heard in favor of speed, if inflation is still contained, while Jerome Powell advocated the strategy of “expectations and viewing” in July. The economic balance of the conflict shown in raw oil reduced traditional urgency in central banks. Nevertheless, uncertainty remains: an increase in the euro, the weakening of the dollar, and the perception of less independent federal backup claims, which should consider more abbreviations in order to avoid excessive inflation.
The validity of a commercial truce between the USA and the EU on July 9 adds another key variable that complicates the monetary road map in the coming months.
3. The world enters the crazy Armament careerThe NATO field increases its 5 percent expenses of GDP compared to the threat of Russia, Trump’s pressure and China’s military boom
The Atlantic Alliance agreed to increase its joint expenses in 5 % protection of GDP – the greatest growth in its history – in order to withstand global renewal, led by the military increase in China and aggression of Russia. Although NATO is currently 55 %of world expenses, and the United States contributes to 36 %(as part of the Alliance, the United States is covered by 66.4 %), European countries, such as Spain, below 1.5 %, which is far from a new goal, while the countries of Eastern Europe are already exceeding 3 %. China, which since 1990 recorded its military budget to answer 12 % of global expenses, has more and more pressure, which motivated NATO to strengthen its strategic rearmament. Ukraine, in the war, identifies 37 % of its GDP for defense, the greatest share of the world. If NATO reaches 5 %, its weight is 69 % of global military expenses, although this result will largely depend on the reaction of such powers as China and Russia, and whether European members fulfill new obligations.
So far in the news.
