Sugar Industry Tries to Block World Health Initiative on Obesity

One of the components of the plan included limiting the recommendations of fat, sugar and salt intake, which have contributed to cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and certain types of cancer around the world. They have also accounted for almost 60 percent of the 56.5 million deaths worldwide each year.

This is merely an extension of the sugar industry's resistance to this proposal. The closest analogy I can think of is the tobacco industry seeking to stall WHO initiatives to help people stop smoking. The only problem here is that I believe that sugar is more dangerous to your health than smoking.
