To: To: Trade Commissioner Peter Mandelson NOT IN MY NAME The World Trade Organisation (WTO) is still trying to revive the possibility of a world trade deal. Over the past five years, millions of EU citizens have called for an outcome to the trade talks which puts the needs of developing countries and the environment first. You have responded to this call with the claim that the EU is pursuing a ‘development agenda’ at the WTO. Yet the EU has pursued an anti-development agenda in the WTO trade talks. The EU has pressed aggressively for developing countries to open up their industrial and services markets, while refusing to make the necessary changes to stop the damage caused by its own agricultural subsidies regime. This agenda threatens to cause immense harm through increased poverty, job losses and environmental destruction across the world. At this crucial stage in the WTO negotiations, I wish to make it known that you do not represent me in pursuing this agenda any further. You do not act in my name. |
