Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in 2013

United States views on international law [1] in relation to Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development: On May 30, 2013, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) announced that it would be entering into accession discussions with Colombia and Latvia. The U.S. Department of State issued a media note conveying the announcement, available at (Secretary of State website) state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2013/05/210106.htm. The media note explains:

The OECD is a multilateral organization that brings together 34 democracies with market economies from the Americas, Europe and the Pacific Rim. Countries seeking OECD membership must demonstrate like-mindedness, or compatibility, with OECD principles, as well as complete technical reviews of various aspects of their economies.

As new members, Colombia and Latvia would contribute unique perspectives and insight to OECD discussions and policy recommendations.
