Brazil bristles as pressure mount on poor nations

AFP, Cancun, Mexico
Brazil on Friday urged its WTO partners at a trade conference here to refrain from "attacking" certain countries or groups of countries as pressure builds to forge a consensus on a new global trade deal.
The statement appeared to target the United States, and to a lesser extent the European Union. Both parties have suggested that responsibility for progress here lies with the Group of 21 developing countries, of which Brazil is a key member.
"We are reaching the final days of the Cancun ministerial," the statement said.
"It is even more important, at this stage, that we concentrate our efforts on trying to negotiate and not direct our energies at attacking countries or groups of countries."
A senior US trade official later denied that the US delegation had been attacking any other delegation here.
The G-21 is currently at loggerheads with the United States and the European Union on the pace and scope of measures to reduce -- or eliminate -- official subsidies to farmers in rich countries.
The group favors far deeper cuts in subsidies than is acceptable to the EU and is seen by the United States as having failed to make known the concessions it is prepared to make to boost trade flows.
The issue is considered crucial to the success of the Cancun meeting, which was called to spur momentum in floundering multilateral trade talks. The conference is due to end Sunday.
European sources said that in
closed door negotiations Thursday, the US delegation, led by US Trade Representative Robert Zoellick, put pressure on the G-21, a report that Zoellick's deputy appeared to confirm in a later press conference.
"The Group of 21 has shown that it can unite in making demands," Deputy US Trade Representative Peter Allgeier said.
"The question is: are these countries prepared to move into a negotiating mode, along with the other 120 countries in this organization."
Allgeier also maintained that the G-21 does not speak for all the developing countries in the 146-member WTO.
"At the last count I thought there were upwards of 100 developing countries or more in this organization," he said.
