US Ambassador Greer says G20 Trade Ministerial reached consensus on food weaponization, made progress on forced labor
Chair’s Statement of the G20 Trade Ministerial
Ambassador Jamieson Greer, as Chair of the G20 Trade Ministerial in Milwaukee, said the G20 reached consensus on a statement regarding weaponization of food through coercive trade actions. Mexico and Argentina joined the US in a separate statement on eliminating forced labor in global supply chains, though the full G20 did not reach consensus on this issue. Ministers also discussed structural excess capacity and MFN principle reform.
美国大使格里称G20贸易部长会议就粮食武器化达成共识
美国贸易代表办公室大使格里作为G20贸易部长会议主席在 Milwaukee 表示,G20就粮食武器化问题通过共识声明。墨西哥和阿根廷与美国单独发表声明反对供应链强迫劳动,但G20层面未就此达成共识。部长们还讨论了结构性产能过剩和最惠国待遇原则改革问题。
The statement shows G20 consensus on food weaponization but no agreement on forced labor, with Mexico and Argentina aligning with US position separately.
