"The author describes how the negotiations have been affected by the new context of COVID-19 and highlights the pandemic's impacts on e-commerce, economic development, and gender equality and social inclusion (GESI) aspects. Finally, the author gives an overview of the negotiations' key issues where there are indications of convergence, and others where divergence remains, as the group prepares for the WTO's Twelfth Ministerial Conference (MC12)."
