Mr Moore argues for a new round of trade talks
The director-general of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) has called for urgent changes to existing multilateral trade agreements.
Don't assume that the world trading will look after itself... don't fight yesterday's battles and neglect tomorrow's opportunities.
Mike Moore, WTO During a speech in Geneva, Mike Moore said: "Don't assume that the world trading will look after itself. Don't fight yesterday's battles and neglect tomorrow's opportunities."
He added that "failure to launch a new round [of multilateral trade negotiations] could also jeopardise the multilateral trading system itself".
Hmm..sounds like we have some work to do! :)
