Trade plays a powerful role in Fiji’s economy. And #Fiji plays a powerful role in the global trading system. A powerful voice in supporting #OurOcean, trade and environment and in so many other areas. “Bula”, Team Fiji, to Geneva

Well done! And think about market access and diversification of supply chain!
And it’s done - the 🇪🇺🤝🇳🇿 trade agreement is signed! It creates economic opportunities for both sides and consolidates our partnership for global public goods - think climate, biodiverdity, labour.

Congratulations to all parties for concluding the Investment Facilitation for Development Agreement! This proves that the rules-based international trading system is still capable of delivering results. @ax_berger @AusWTO @PeterDraper5 @DFAT_TradeTalk protect-au.mimecast.com/s/JL…

Indeed. Plenty of analysis of the challenges facing the global trading system - but far too little of the successes. Much more - and more public - celebration of these wins is needed. Because these wins represent tangible statements of confidence in the @wto by its Members.

New agreements at the WTO ? ✅ In 2021, the global services trade deal on behind-the-border barriers concluded ✅ In 2022, the fisheries subsidies treaty concluded … and, just today, ✅ the 2023 Investment Facilitation negotiations concluded That’s called momentum.

It's been a year since @trade_eu reviewed its trade and sustainability policies. It was an exercise based on the principles of transparency, engagement, and respect of our international commitments. Here's what happened since (and a hint on what's to come) 1/8

I'm speechless, and not in a good way. The World Bank — or at least part of it — has gone down the same path as the IMF and conflated environmental externalities with actual subsidies, calling the former "implicit subsidies". worldbank.org/en/topic/clima… via @WorldBank

For mitigating geopolitical tensions that are creating fault lines within the #WTO, a pragmatic option is to increase the utilisation of flexibilities, note @Psm_cuts, Sneha Singh, @badrinarayanang, @PeterDraper5, Hamid Mamdouh, Heribert Dieter. or-f.org/122245
