Sharma met Azevedo on the sidelines of World Economic Forum Annual meeting at Davos, Switzerland, and took stock of the progress of post-Bali programme of WTO negotiations.

"We must capitalise on the momentum gained in Bali and push ahead with the work programmes that we agreed to establish on the Doha Development Agenda and food security," an official release here quoted Sharma as telling Azevedo.
