Commenter warns tariffs between major economies could slow global growth, harm developing countries

A public commenter warned that tariffs imposed by what they called the "two main global economies" would slow global growth and disproportionately harm developing countries and small island developing states.

The commenter said attention should be paid to countries that are more vulnerable. "When you impose tariffs in the 2 main global economies, it will affect everybody, not only the economies that engage in in the tariff war and so we are worried about the fact that the global economy will really slow down. Our emphasis has been to put attention in what is can happen to the developing countries, to the countries that are more vulnerable, to the least developed countries, to the small island developing states, what is happening to those countries is what really worries us," the public commenter said.

The speaker framed the concern as both global and distributional: they emphasized potential broad economic slowdown and particular harm to least developed countries and small island developing states. No formal motion or vote was recorded in the transcript segment provided.
