World Trade Organization - Geneva Negotiations 2008
Time: Monday Jul 21, 2008
Place: Geneva, Switzerland
Details: On 21 July 2008, negotiations started again at the WTO's HQ in Geneva on the Doha round but stalled after nine days of negotiations over the refusal to compromise over the special safeguard mechanism. "Developing country members receive special and differential treatment with respect to other members' safeguard measures, in the form of a de minimis import volume exemption. As users of safeguards, developing country members receive special and differential treatment with respect to applying their own such measures, with regard to the permitted duration of extensions, and with respect to re-application of measures.
