Among them, the U.S. wants the Indo-Pacific countries to improve their labor and environmental standards

The US: We have done a good job of dismantling our formerly strong labor movement and opening up to predatory "market forces", and we will show you how to keep it that way.

Improving Labor and environmental standards depends on the level of economic development of the country in question in terms of ability. And political development in terms of willingness.

Then there are nations that simply wonlt listen to the US anyway.

What? Every US government since Reagan has attempted to destroy all the hard fought gains in labour and environmental protection made since the 1850s, as is the current British government, whose intention seems to be a kind of neo-feudalism. Is this article some kind of a joke?
