Minister of Trade and Industry, Dr Rob Davies, has arrived in New Delhi, India to attend an informal two-day World Trade Organisation (WTO) ministers meeting which concludes tomorrow (Tuesday).
The purpose of the meeting was for ministers to engage in free and frank discussions around safeguarding and strengthening the multilateral trading system, the dti said.
"The meeting is taking place at a time when global trade is going through a period of uncertainty with an increase in protectionism in some countries and a backlash against trade agreements and globalisation due to lack of inclusive growth. It therefore offers an opportunity to engage on fundamental issues that affect global trade," said a dti spokesperson.
