I think the time for brinkmanship is over. I think people realize now that we are in the end game and people will hopefully come forward with their bottom line positions so that we can wrap this up.
This is a critical week for these negotiations, there's no two ways about that.
It has been done. The big breakthrough has been achieved.
It has been a wonderful election. It means we are able to deliver when we need to deliver.
If it takes a little more time to get things right, then that's clearly the best way.
The problems we have faced all week continue, in agriculture, industrial goods, cotton.
While this was nothing to sneeze at, it was certainly less than on previous occasions.
I think it is finely balanced, but we can still get something this weekend.
Nobody seems to believe that we can go much beyond the end of this year to complete the negotiations.
There is a need for them to progress here. It's a very important meeting.
