"The big rich countries had a chance to help the poorer nations of the world, but they chose to look after special interests inside their own borders instead. While this may not be so surprising, it makes a mockery of the arguments for free trade which are so often made by these same rich countries when they are trying to get poorer countries to open up their markets and industries."
