Delhi moot

Published April 6, 2007

GENEVA, April 5: WTO members have voiced frustration at the slow pace of negotiations ahead of a ministerial meeting of key players in New Delhi next week, sources close to the talks said on Thursday.

The comments came after WTO director general Pascal Lamy chaired a meeting on Wednesday.

“The frustration is mounting,” a source said, referring to the inability of the G4 group of influential trading nations -- the European Union, US, Brazil and India -- to agree a common position on agriculture.—AFP
