Negotiating texts

A former Canadian Ambassador, the late Gerry Shannon, worked hard in the middle 1990s to develop a negotiating mandate for the FMCT, which until recent months enjoyed universal support in this forum.

(b) Negotiating effectively in multilateral and regional forums

The Conference on Disarmament is a negotiating body.

We started talking with them and I was negotiating.

It also attaches great importance to international negotiating forums.
