“I welcome Estonia’s donation which will help developing and least-developed countries to expand their markets and find new trading partners, thereby supporting their further integration into the global economy,” declared WTO Director-General Roberto Azevêdo.

Estonia’s ambassador Jüri Seilenthal stated: “Estonia is happy to continue its support for developing countries, especially now that the negotiations on advancing the Doha Development Agenda are well under way again.”

Since 2002, Estonia has donated to the various WTO trust funds a total of CHF 258,150.
