Comments on Pascal Lamy's chat
6 March, 2006
By Jacques Berthelot, Solidarit
Question: Shall we start?
Answer: Welcome to everybody. Because I really wanted to have this chat with you today, I stopped for a few hours watching the winter olympic games on TV which is as you probably know my main occupation for the moment.. so back to work on the WTO issues and to the Doha Round negotiations.
Question: does the wto hinder countrires in the developing world?
Answer: No, not if developing countries use the system effectively. The WTO offers opportunities, but it can be a challenge to make the best use of them.
