WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange said in a statement:
“It is a mistake to think of the TPP as a single treaty. In reality
there are three conjoined mega-agreements, the TiSA, the TPP and the
TTIP, all of which strategically assemble into a grand unified treaty,
partitioning the world into the west versus the rest. This ‘Great
Treaty’ is described by the Pentagon as the economic core to the U.S.
military’s ‘Asia Pivot.’ The architects are aiming no lower than the arc
of history. The Great Treaty is taking shape in complete secrecy,
because along with its undebated geostrategic ambitions it locks into
place an aggressive new form of transnational corporatism for which
there is little public support.”
Peter Maybarduk, Public Citizen - “[A] leak reveals that the Obama administration, acting at the behest of pharmaceutical companies, has subjected Medicare to a series of procedural rules, negotiated in secret, that would limit Congress’ ability to enact policy reforms that would reduce prescription drug costs for Americans — and might even open to challenge aspects of our health care system today.
