  • The WTO deals with regulation of trade in goods, services and intellectual property between participating countries by providing a framework for negotiating trade agreements.
  • The WTO prohibits discrimination between trading partners, but provides exceptions for environmental protection, national security, and other important goals.

The DDA is based on 3 pillars:

Rules, for example, on trade facilitation and anti-dumping;

Assessment activity 2

Market access for agricultural products, industrial goods, services;

Development.

The EU supported the launch of a broad and ambitious round. It saw it as the best way to deliver economic growth and development gains for all participants and to allow for the necessary trade-offs.

Materials & equipment

In order to overcome the impasse in the Doha negotiations and keep protectionism at bay, WTO members have focused on achieving results in less controversial areas, which could largely deliver on development goals.

The EU and the WTO

So far, the EU has played a central role in developing the international trading system since World War II. Currently, the EU is exploring the possibility of modernising the WTO.

Thesis 2

The EU single market was partly inspired by WTO principles and practices. The Union has always been among the main promoters of effective international trade based on the rule of law.

THE EU AT THE WTO

The EU’s Common Commercial Policy is one of the areas in which the Union as such has full and exclusive competency. In other words, the EU operates as a single actor at the WTO and is represented by the Commission rather than by the Member States. The Commission negotiates trade agreements and defends the EU’s interests before the WTO Dispute Settlement Body on behalf of all 28 Member States.
