Summary/Abstract: The Doha Round began with a ministerial-level meeting in Doha, Qatar in 2001. Despite the ambitious agenda of the negotiations, the WTO members failed to meet the deadline settled in Doha. The main negotiations problems still are: agriculture, the special safeguard mechanism (SSM), sensitive products, NAMA. The causes of lack of compromise are also the system of decision making under WTO and the domestic situation in member countries caused by the financial crisis.
