Amendment 62 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 10 10. Reiterates its strong support for a successful conclusion of the Doha Development Round, bearing in mind that a good conclusion should reflect the shifts in the world’s trading patterns and distribution of the benefits of world trade since the launch of the Round, bearing in mind also the need for a balanced NAMA text to guarantee access to emerging markets such as India, China and ASEAN countries while preventing emerging economies to use NAMA flexibilities to shelter specific key sectors by maintaining peak tariffs;
