The World Trade Organisation (WTO) has warned that the trade conflict between the U.S. and other countries could negatively impact on global economy, if it intensifies.
The WTO Director-General Roberto Azevedo warned on Wednesday that there were indications that this was already happening.
When asked if there was a risk for the global economy, Azevedo told Business Daily Media: “Absolutely.

He said that it was crucial to maintain dialogue to avoid escalation.
