Trade Ministers are meeting in Yaoundé, Cameroon, for the 14th World Trade Organisation (WTO) Ministerial Conference (MC14).

The four-day meeting seeks to push forward reforms of the global trade body, amid warnings from diplomats and trade officials that without an agreement, countries could begin setting trade rules outside the WTO framework. On the first day of the meeting, the Director-General of the WTO, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, called on countries to overhaul global trade rules, citing that the old world order had gone for good, following a year of turmoil sparked by U.S. tariffs and wider geopolitical tensions.

Thami Ngubeni spoke to Trade Analyst, Viwe Ntshongwana.
