The Dutch Minister for Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation, Sigrid Kaag, today emphasised the need to reform and improve the World Trade Organisation for trade collaborations through negotiations.

Speaking at the launch of #StartUpLink, an Indo-Dutch startup initiative here, she said some challenges that affect trade collaborations must be sorted out.

Stating that Prime Minister Narendra Modi too had raised this important issue, she said the Netherlands was committed to the two nations engaging around it.

On challenges to be sorted out in trade collaboration between the two nations, she said these involve international trading rules, the WTO and some governments' 'unilateral decisions.'
