Doha is a Development Round. The EU is fully committed to the principle of special and differential treatment for developing countries based on their individual needs and vulnerabilities. In every sector of the negotiations, the EU has shaped its requests to reflect the different needs of different developing countries. However there is a wide range of capacities among developing countries - Brazil and Benin are not the same. Advanced Developing Countries like Brazil, China and India cannot be expected to make the same commitments as developed countries, but they are asked to make a contribution. The EU’s positions reflect the principle of "different needs, different responsibilities". |
