Prof. Richard Falk Former UN Special Rapporteur Gaza People's Tribunal: The Global South has felt vulnerable to economic & coercive pressure from Western powers whenever it considered a concerted challenge.

Effective action requires mobilizing civil society - the only way to overcome the hierarchy of influence built into relations between sovereign states. FULL INTERVIEW https://youtu.be/TlzIl7My5wo
