SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION - DOHA ROUND 
 
 
On July 30, conservative, influential newspaper-of-record "El 
Mercurio" (circ. 116,807) ran an editorial entitled "The Collapse of 
the Doha Round."  Quote: 
 
"The failure of the Doha round is a harsh blow for poor nations 
worldwide....  If the U.S. and European protectionist subsidies were 
to disappear...the savings would help the poor.  But the persistence 
of these subsidies will cause more commercial conflicts among 
nations and decrease trade, which will hurt everyone, including 
Chile."
