"I should like to underline that consequently, the European Union not only seeks to further liberalise world trade, it also seeks to further regulate world trade. In fact, that reflects public opinion in the Member States perfectly. Non-trade issues, further progress in terms of transparency of the World Trade Organisation mechanism, the preservation of the European model of government services and the special statute of those services are some of the interests which the European Union protects.
Together with the developing countries, a serious effort has been made over the past three years on the issue surrounding implementation. That has made it possible to identify the relevant themes. In some cases, these concern the application of the agreements, or a slight adjustment or interpretation of the text to be specified.
In other cases, these concern points which could well result in a formal change to the existing agreements. All this slows down the process. It is a process in which the European Union takes an active part, and is fully aware that this forms a key component for many countries.
I should like to point out that, alongside this effort involving the developing countries, an effort must also be made involving the so-called ‘rich countries’ which were originally, up until the beginning of this year, absolutely unconvinced – some more than others – of the fact that there is a real problem of implementation with regard to the developing countries."@en1
