The 13th @WTO Ministerial Conference has just opened and has already confirmed its first achievements: two new Members in Comoros and Timor-Leste.

A special congratulations to Timor-Leste on this important step for economic development and multilateral engagement.

[James Baxter @AusWTO]

The WTO Ministerial Conference is almost upon us.

It is a huge opportunity for Trade Ministers to lay out a positive, future-facing @WTO reform agenda.

Australia supports UAE Minister of State for Trade and #MC13 Chair @ThaniAlZeyoudi in delivering on this.

[James Baxter @AusWTO]

I am honoured to have been received as Australia’s Permanent Representative to the WTO by @NOIweala.

I look forward to working with her and my new counterparts to achieve meaningful WTO reform and make next month’s Ministerial Conference a success.

@DalrympleWill We’re in Cairo right now and following your tweets from Egypt with interest.

Our teenage son was asking whether the origins of the Coptic cross might have emerged from the key of life. Seems from that wonderful image above that some of the symbolism was morphing at least.

@DalrympleWill Thank you - will follow up with pleasure.

[George Mina @georgemina_]

@DalrympleWill Magnificent. All of which proves, @DalrympleWill, that your next big book project must be on Egypt.
