Came across this on the BBC tonight:
Europe and the United States have been accused of trying to smash a powerful new alliance of poor states bent on re-writing world trade rules.
The Group of 21 (G21), which includes China, India and Brazil, threatened the traditional dominance of rich countries, on the second day of world trade talks in Cancun, Mexico.
Does G21 actually represent the farmers in those countries, or does it represent the US/Euro/etc-owned corporations that distribute their product?

South Africa, Barbados, Chile, Brazil, Mexico, Kenya Nigeria, Senegal, Tunisia, Canada, the US, France, Sweden, India, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Czech Republic, Croatia, Macedonia, and the Russian Federation...
apparently a substantial number of G21 states oppose the US/European "free trade" agenda
