At WTO, India calls for steps to boost tech transfer to developing nations
New Delhi: India has asked developed countries at the World Trade Organization to put in place measures to transfer relevant and advanced, especially environmentally sound, technologies so as to improve trade flows from the developing and least-developed countries.
On Monday, New Delhi highlighted at the WTO General Council the persistent barriers faced by developing economies and LDCs in acquiring, adapting and using critical technologies including export controls on inputs such as semiconductor chips and rare earth minerals, and inflexible intellectual property regimes.
