The Minister said that the ongoing crisis has exposed the world to vulnerabilities, forcing us to explore ways to support each other.
He said that Trade can be an engine of reviving growth in such a scenario.
Mr Goyal called for removing multiple hurdles in access to medicines at affordable prices created by the WTO rules for protecting intellectual property.
He said that intellectual property rights should not block access to critical medicines and other devices required for the treatment of the disease.
