World Trade Organization Blasted UN-Appointed Team Finds WTO Is A "Nightmare" Says Trade Group Biased Against Developing Countries Recommends WTO Be Brought Under Purview Of UN GENEVA, August 11, 2000 AP The report rejected linking trade rules to human rights, labor and environmental standards. (Reuters) A U.N.-appointed study team has labeled the World Trade Organization (WTO) a "nightmare" for developing countries and suggested the body should be brought under the United Nation's purview. In a report presented this week to the U.N.'s sub-commission on protection of human rights and made available Friday, the team also dismisses the WTO's open trading rules as based "on grossly unfair and even prejudiced" assumptions.
