Summary
There is nothing more important to the future of the WTO than negotiation. One senior WTO Director lamented after MC11 that it was a lost skill. This proved not to be the case on many issues decided at MC12. Nevertheless, attention must be paid to making sure that those serving the WTO and the WTO members understand the centrality of negotiation. It is a skill set that makes international cooperation possible.
