Need to ensure timely, equitable availability of Covid-19 vaccines: Piyush Goyal

Live Mint  

New Delhi: The Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal has called upon the global community to ensure timely and equitable availability of vaccines and medicines for coronavirus, in sufficient quantities and affordable prices. "The need of the hour is to take effective measures to address the immediate challenges, and also prepare a long-term roadmap on how to reform an ailing and imbalanced global trading system," he said. "We are always ready to engage constructively with other WTO Members to protect human life and work towards restoring inclusive and sustainable global economic growth," Union Minister added. He said that India will not accept any attempts to restrict the flexibilities and policy space that developing countries need to better integrate with the global trading system.
