Jeddah - Yasmine El Tohamy - WTO’s Ministerial Conference in Abu Dhabi to address decentralization of global supply chains

RIYADH: Abu Dhabi is set to host the World Trade Organization’s Ministerial Conference focused on reshaping global trade dynamics, according to the intergovernmental body’s director general.

Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala highlighted in an interview with the Emirates News Agency from Geneva the importance of this discussion slated to take place from Feb. 26 to 29.

She said that this gathering will see talks on various topics, such as decentralizing global supply chains, fostering a more inclusive international trade landscape, and ensuring the participation of marginalized communities in multinational development efforts.

Okonjo-Iweala stressed that many private-sector investors currently adopt the “China+1” model, where they diversify supply chains beyond the Asian economic giant to countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, or India.

“We have no problems with that. But we are saying there is also China plus Morocco, China plus Brazil, China plus Senegal, China plus Bangladesh. So, there are many countries that are ripe for investment,” Okonjo-Iweala said.

The focus on decentralization aims to encourage investors to reshape global supply chains and drive employment opportunities. Okonjo-Iweala underlined that for the world to enhance resilience, the private sector must invest in developing countries with conducive investment environments.

She highlighted the multifaceted benefits of such investments, stating: “You can help deal with the resilience of supply chains. You can help deal with inequality by investing in developing countries. You can help create jobs.”

Reflecting on the significance of the WTO’s 13th Ministerial Conference being hosted in Abu Dhabi, Okonjo-Iweala expressed gratitude to the UAE for its commitment to multilateralism and global solidarity. 

She added that collaboration with the Emirati authorities in organizing a meeting that will bring together more than 7,000 people in Abu Dhabi has been highly positive.

MC13’s agenda includes pioneering discussions on various contemporary issues ranging from trade and environment to climate change, sustainability, and inclusion. 

Okonjo-Iweala stressed the importance of addressing the challenges faced by marginalized populations and integrating developing countries, especially women and small enterprises, into the global supply chain.

Additionally, MC13 will celebrate the accession of new WTO members – Timor-Leste and Comoros – for the first time in eight years. Discussions will also revolve around reforms in the dispute settlement system and negotiations on digital trade, fisheries subsidies, and more.

As the world navigates complex economic and environmental challenges, MC13 stands as a platform for fostering dialogue, cooperation, and inclusive trade policies to drive sustainable global development.
