You are mistaking the meaning of liberal in this context. It means something very different overseas and it means something very different when discussing trade. This is referring to trade liberalism.
Show me the text - from overseas or anywhere else - that reflects 'liberal' in the context of trade.
Furthermore, Biden specifically said, '…it's the glue that holds the liberal world order together.'
Attempt to move the goalposts all you want, but what Biden said was very clear. Kinda' like when he said his team has created, "the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics"
Some of the push back here is pretty hilarious considering how unpopular price controls, public services, regulation, subsidies and so many things the liberal economics has pushed back against...
"Trade liberalization" specifically refers to the idea of free trade and the removal of barriers to trade. No doubt that's more controversial here.
Thanks for the copy/paste definitions. Did you watch the full video I posted that the clip was from? Biden made no mention of economics or trade. And the video description included no mention of economics or trade. Only "political cooperation and consensus".
