Schwab Also Signalling Delay In WTO Ministerial
USTR Susan Schwab is also signalling the likelihood of a delay in the WTO Ministerial meeting that until the last day or so had been planned for Geneva in the week beginning 14 April. Speaking yesterday in Beijing Schwab said that she foresees a WTO Ministerial in the next "4-8 weeks". This still keeps the week beginning 14 April as a possibility, but it doesn't fill one with confidence that this will be the timing.
