Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

The term NAMA-11 refers to a coalition of developing-country delegations that coordinate positions in the Non‑Agricultural Market Access (NAMA) negotiations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). The NAMA-11 grouping (e.g., Argentina, Brazil, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Namibia, Philippines, South Africa, Tunisia and Venezuela) is explicitly described in relation to NAMA bargaining at the WTO [1]. NAMA itself is the WTO negotiating strand on tariff and non‑tariff reductions for non‑agricultural products and is part of the Doha Round/Doha Development Agenda trade negotiations conducted under the WTO auspices [3]. Therefore references to NAMA‑11 concern World Trade Organization affairs.
