Dr Georgios Zanias Secretary General, Ministry of Economy and Finance Let me first express my warm thanks to the people and the Government of Mexico for the warm hospitality and the excellent organization of the Fifth Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organization. Special thanks are also due to the Secretariat of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ, its Director-General and the Chairman of the General Council for their efforts towards a successful outcome of this Conference and of the whole Round. We strongly believe that the success of this Ministerial Conference is an important milestone towards the liberalization of international trade. It constitutes a great opportunity to reconfirm our political will to work together to strengthen the multilateral trade system with a view to promoting sustainable development and growth. It is thus important that, at this juncture, the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ "family" increases with the addition of Nepal and Cambodia. Regarding the substance of the negotiations, we should all keep in mind that this is a development round. Addressing the developing countries' concerns, requires an integrated approach within which trade is a very important component. For this reason, we welcome the Agreement on TRIPS and Public Health that was recently achieved. We consider this as an important humanitarian aspect of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ system. We also believe that we should make an effort to meet in a satisfactory manner the other concerns of developing countries regarding technical assistance and Special and Differentiated Treatment. Agriculture is a key sector in these negotiations. The recent EU decision on the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy constitutes an important contribution to the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ negotiations, while the joint EU/US proposal provides a realistic basis for a framework agreement with a view to establishing comprehensive modalities for further commitments in agriculture. Within this framework, we should acknowledge and secure the multifunctional character of agriculture. In this regard it is imperative to retain the appropriate level of flexibility and the instruments, among which the domestic support plays a key role, to address these concerns. Another very important issue which addresses consumer concerns and sustainable development in rural areas, recognized also by developing countries, is the protection of Geographical Indications (GIs). We fully support the extension of strong protection for all products, the establishment of an effective and legally binding multilateral system for wines and spirits and the protection of currently abused geographical indications. Regrettably, negotiations on these aspects are very much lacking behind. It is time now to dispel any ambiguity and to give clear negotiating mandate and guidance on these issues. Regarding the other sectors, we welcome the progress made in the negotiations on services and we hope that more offers will come on the table. Concerning non-agricultural market access, we favour the Chairman's proposal but we believe that there is a scope for further improvement. Contribution by all °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ Members is necessary to facilitate the South-South trade. Nevertheless, market opening is not sufficient by itself and requires to be accompanied by the establishment of new rules. In this respect, we favour negotiations on all four Singapore Issues. Mutual understanding is a key element towards the success of our negotiations. __________ WT/MIN(03)/ST/53Page PAGE 2 WT/MIN(03)/ST/53 Page PAGE 1 . /. 0BDNR–«®¶RSjkqrst‘—˜™š¬øôñëéñäñàñéÞÛÞÖÖñÖÖÖñÖ jUmH >*5mHCJmH5:CJ,mHmH>*mH5:CJ,mH0BCDNO÷òòÚÐò¶”Ðòòž0òò~ $$–lÖ0+p#$$–l4Ö+p# $$–l”ˆÿ4Ö+p# $d„þ¤ð$$$–l4Ö+p#`$$$dh$0BCDHIJKLNOPQRiw–ª«¬®µ¶ÛÝÞ±²tuÒ Ó X Y ÀÁQRôõDEFQRSTuvw¢£¤©ª«¬ýýýûýýûýýýûýùùùùùùûýýûýýýõûóóóùóùñùù EOPQRiw–ª«¬®µ¶ÛÝÞ±²tuÒ úúìdúúúäØÖÖÖÓÓÓÓÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖ$$$–lÖ+p#$ ÆÐÂ@$$–l”`ÿÖ+p#$$Ò Ó X Y ÀÁQRôõDEFQRSTuvwx›œžŸýýýýýýýýýùùùôùñýèèèæÝÝÝæÛ ÆÐ¡C#B# ÆÐ¡C# $$„Ð„ÐŸ ¡¢£¤©ª«¬ýûýùýöýýý$ ' 0&P °ƒ. °ÈA!° "° #Ð$ %°°ÐM [4@ñÿ4Normal $ ÆÐCJmH >"> Heading 1$ &Fm¤ð@&5;<2< Heading 2$ &Fm¤ð@&:<B< Heading 3$ &Fm¤ð@&58R8 Heading 4$ &Fm¤ð@&828 Heading 5 &Fm¤ð@&6..
