Delegate after the end of a General Council meeting,the WTO's highest-level decision-making body in Geneva, which takes palce behind closed doors, by a statue representing Peace. The World Trade Organisation, headquartered in Geneva, has 164 members, and in theory, negotiates and regulates global trade. It is however in crisis: new multi-lateral trade negotiations have been stalled for years, while it's principle dispute settlement body, the 'crown jewels' of the WTO and the global trading system, is almost completely blocked. Calls for reform are intensifying.
