Another Doha round of talks next month

LONDON, Feb. 22 (UPI) -- Key players in the World Trade Organization's Doha round of global free-trade talks plan yet another make-or-break negotiation.

India, Brazil, the European Union, Australia, the United States and Japan will send officials March 10 to London to seek deeper cuts in support for Japanese, EU and U.S. farmers, more concessions from India and Brazil on manufactured goods and greater openness by China on services, the Guardian said Wednesday.

After the failure to reach an agreement in Hong Kong last December, the WTO's 150 members gave themselves until the end of April to settle their differences in agricultural and manufactured goods.

The current round of talks have been under way since 1999.
