Gustavo Petro raised the importance of discussing in spaces such as the world economic forum the articulation of climate agreements with the World Trade Organization (WTO)with the objective that the countries that have the capacity can increase the production of food that will reduce hunger.

(See: Davos Economic Forum: possibilities of a global recession in 2023).

Food production is today, as we all know, absolutely mandatory in our countries, where we have the capacity to produce it to reduce hunger, but a series of trade agreements prevent us from producing certain foods such as corn, such as soybeans.”, assured the head of state.

He also highlighted the country’s interest in once again producing strategic foods such as corn and soy to feed the colombian people.

(See: Cooperation, the central theme of the economic summit in Davos).

For it, the mandatary explained that “the rules that, through trade agreements and that have to do with the World Trade Organization, prevent this development, have to vary. I said it here: climate agreements are above the treaties of the World Trade Organization”.
