March 04, 2011. WTO Talks On Geographical Indications Unable To Achieve 
Lift-Off

World Trade Organization members on Thursday combed through a composite 
text displaying the different views on a mandated multilateral system of 
notification and registration of geographical indications on wines and 
spirits. The composite text was developed last week as the result of 
several informal meetings. Countries now have clarified their inputs to 
the document and tried to define what next steps should be taken to 
refine it, but discussions were difficult, according to participants.
