Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, held a high-level meeting with India’s Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, on the sidelines of the G20 Summit in Johannesburg.
The discussion, which comes at a critical time for global trade reforms, focused on strengthening international cooperation, boosting sustainable development, and enhancing trade opportunities between developing nations. Their engagement highlights India’s increasing influence within the multilateral trading system and Okonjo-Iweala’s continued push for inclusive economic growth.
Analysts say the meeting underscores the WTO’s ongoing efforts to navigate global economic challenges, from supply-chain disruptions to trade inequalities.
