U.S. provides $1 million for WTO technical assistance programs
The U.S. government will contribute about $1 million for trade-related technical assistance to the World Trade Organization.
The United States has so far contributed about $4 million to this effort since its launch in the WTO’s Doha Development Agenda in November 2001.
“Trade can be a powerful tool for developing countries in building their economies and improving the lives of their citizens,” said U.S. trade representative Robert Zoellick in a statement. “Helping countries trade more, helps Americans gain expanded access to overseas markets.”
