"Madam President, we all agree on the need for reform for the WTO. But the best reform for the World Trade Organisation would be in the attitudes of the negotiating parties, including that of the European Union.
I call on my colleagues to support the cross-party global campaign calling for real trade of which I am a co-chairman with Abdi Abdirahim Haithar of the East African Legislative Assembly. We call for five things. Let us abolish agricultural subsidies; let us abolish agricultural tariffs; let us liberalise rules of origin; let us place more emphasis on aid for trade, for things like infrastructure rather than direct budgetary support for corrupt governments. And, let us incentivise low-income countries to remove barriers between each other so that they can create wealth – entrepreneurs can create wealth – and so that they can take part in the global trading system."@en1
