In news– The G-33 Virtual Informal Ministerial Meeting organized by Indonesia was held recently.

Key highlights of the meeting-

About G-33/ Friends of Special Products-

  • G-33 is a coalition of developing countries, established prior to the 2003 Cancun ministerial conference, that have coordinated during the Doha Round of WTO negotiations, specifically in regard to agriculture.
  • Dominated by India, the group has “defensive” concerns regarding agriculture in relation to WTO negotiations, and seeks to limit the degree of market opening required of developing countries.
  • The group has advocated the creation of a “special products” exemption, which would allow developing countries to exempt certain products from tariff reductions, and also a “special safeguard mechanism” which would permit tariff increases in response to import surges.

Twelfth Ministerial Conference (MC-12) of WTO-

  • The MC-12 will take place from 30 November to 3 December 2021 in Geneva, Switzerland. 
  • The Conference will be chaired by Kazakhstan’s Minister of Trade and Integration, Bakhyt Sultanov, as approved by WTO members in December 2019.
  • The Ministerial Conference, which is attended by trade ministers and other senior officials from the WTO’s 164 members, is the highest decision-making body of the WTO.
