The 4th Ministerial Conference
of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) is being held in Doha,
Qatar.
Greenpeace believes this represents a real opportunity,
and therefore also a challenge, for the Qatari government.
We trust that the Qatari government will meet its commitment
to allow peaceful protests and free speech in Qatar for the
duration of the WTO Ministerial Conference, and beyond.
Greenpeace also trusts that the Qatari government will allow
the Greenpeace ship, Rainbow Warrior, to visit Doha for the
duration of the meeting.
Together with the crew of the vessel, people representing
local communities from the five continents, whose livelihood
and health is endangered by current WTO policies and practice,
will travel to Doha on board the Rainbow Warrior.
