The U.S. is slow in reaching a negotiating position in the Doha round trade liberalization talks, the World Trade Organisation's Director General said in an Italian business daily on Tuesday.
In an interview in Il Sole 24 Ore, Pascal Lamy said that after a year spent putting in place the new U.S. administration, next year's U.S. mid-term elections could prove a further problem in finalizing the Doha talks.
"The U.S. is proving to be slow in reaching a clear and articulated negotiating position... the problem is that in 2010 there will be mid-term elections," he said in the interview.
