Extraordinary statement from a man whose global career and rational demeanor and central banker's pragmatic ethos made him a quintessential standardbearer for the 'rules-based international order' that he now eloquently warns is coming apart, perhaps irreparably -#markcarney
“We are taking the sign out of the window. The old order is not coming back. We should not mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy. But from the fracture, we can build something better, stronger, and more just. This is the task of the middle powers.”
