How France helps the world's poor
I blogged earlier this month about French efforts to derail the "development round" of WTO talks. The Economist has the latest on this story:
[Isn't it hypocritical to blast France when the U.S. has its agricultural subsidies?--ed. Look at this chart and you'll see that U.S. subsidies are considerably smaller than the those in the EU, Japan, South Korea, or Scandinavia] More on this from the Financial Times and the EU Observer -- which observes that The French stance "is isolated among European partners." posted by Dan on 06.23.03 at 05:04 PMComments: okay posted by: john chucks on 06.23.03 at 05:04 PM [permalink]Post a Comment: |
