DG of wto. Mr Lamy said: “No one is throwing in the towel, multiple strong calls for preserving the package that had been so painfully negotiated in order to conclude this Round successfully”. He said there is no doubt that “looking at what is on the table now, members believe that the Doha Round is still worth fighting for”. Yes, but the thing is not Crystal clear points. the realty on the ground had another matter to defeat not meeting sipping champagne and coffee.
If WTO is to exist then to tear down barriers most also be. The European Union and the USA responsible for the failure of the world trade discussions in Geneva. They would have had to deal more strongly with the entitled demand of India (fighting for the whole third world)? After hedge clauses in poor states before to high agrarian imported goods. Which can be discouraged from repeated failure, for all those, which show nerves, if they run again and again into the same dead end, for all those are the World Trade Organization negotiations probably a red cloth. And who can state from itself to be in love with the failure. But once more was without result. in the autumn they want to try again . Those were so close to, complained for instance the commercial assigned from the USA, but it should become times again nothing. In the core the meeting in the controversy burst all the hedge clauses mentioned, which wanted to secure certain developing countries for itself, in order to protect their farmers against existence-threatening price purge. Come to meet on all sides usually is in such muddled situations as now with the World Trade Organization in demand, but in truth each country thinks first of their own farmers which is somehow understandable, but is it thus simple to assign black Peter clearly?
India did something, what was stressed once again actually a short while before with the G8-meeting, i.e. has brought the question of the aliment and nourishing security in the play. And hunger over 850 million, as well as about small farmers. And it is quite justified to require here this hedge clause. And I find that the USA would have had themselves to move much more strongly, also the European Union, in order to support these demands. France in connection with the ACP countries, its earlier colonial connections. France actually goes more strongly protectionistically under its new government Sarkozy to the whole question near, there is also important it to find within the European Union a positioning. That does not have to mean the negotiations would have to fail But where is the way out? Because this kind of the hardened fronts exists for years strictly speaking and thus that really nobody is moved in the place it come to the further abort now also once again. With the industrialized countries, because on side the same industrialized countries as it were a large Impact make and a plan of action here nourishing security announce a short while before on the G8-meeting. And then if it does not become concrete, if the conditions of the small farmers to be actually supported, this is now the fourth time of this playing acts and nothing happens, how that be welcome and accepted? Time is running out!
The third countries had no other instrument than the WTO and they most use this and develop, in order to also embody the social and ecological standards. Thus the right to food, which was signed world-wide in the meantime, which would have with these World Trade Organization rights embodied, so that then also such preventive measures for farmers are a matter of course in the countries, which need these measures evenly. That is, one needed here progress in a strategy, which leaves the pure goal of a liberalisation, also even, is much criticized, in favor of usually the industrialized countries and the money-hungrily companies. There it must actually concern the complete dismantling of all commercial distorting subsidies and it must evenly come to really accept these hedge clauses which must seize if the existence of the millions of farmers (who are already hungry) is threatened.
