Lucas and Luna dissect the latest developments at the World Trade Organization, from dispute rulings and tariff disputes to the stalling Doha Round. They map the patchwork of free trade agreements — from the USMCA and RCEP to the AfCFTA — and assess how these deals reshape supply chains, labor standards, and intellectual property protections. Each episode grounds abstract policy in concrete numbers: the volume of trade at stake, the tariff lines that matter, the winners and losers in specific industries. The show is for trade economists, policy analysts, and business leaders who need to understand how trade tensions affect their operations. Lucas brings the global perspective; Luna stresses the real-world impact on exporters, importers, and workers. Together, they avoid ideology and focus on the data: what does a new EU carbon border adjustment mean for Indian steel? How does a Chinese export ban on rare earths hit electric vehicle production?

They explain how this framework created a uniform liability regime for international air transport, setting a cap of roughly $23 per kilogram for lost or damaged cargo. The hosts trace how this single legal standard gave insurers, banks, and logistics firms the predictability needed to finance and insure high-value, time-sensitive shipments across borders. They discuss the convention's origins in the early days of commercial aviation, the 1966 increase to $75,000 per passenger, and the shift to Special Drawing Rights under the Montreal Protocol. Lucas and Luna also examine how the rules affect e-commerce today, where a package worth $50 gets the same liability treatment as a $50,000 shipment. The episode closes with a look at whether the framework is outdated for modern supply chains. #WarsawConvention #MontrealProtocol #AirCargo #InternationalTrade #Liability #AviationLaw #SupplyChain #Ecommerce #Shipping #Freight #Logistics #WTO #TradeRules #Insurance #SpecialDrawingRights #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"In this 100th episode of Global Trade with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore the one rule that made global air cargo trade possible: the 1929 Warsaw Convent…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":655,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/global-trade-with-fexingo-wto-free-trade-agreements-and-international-commerce-7871813/episodes/the-single-rule-that-made-global-air-cargo-trade-possible/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/global-trade-with-fexingo-wto-free-trade-agreements-and-international-commerce-7871813/the-single-rule-that-made-global-air-cargo-trade-possible.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
