Mandelson concluded: "We must invest in change. Invest in those affected by change. But face up to a changing world. We must be robust in our defence of the rules, and our defence of fair competition. We need to recognise that if we want to win the wider political argument for free trade, we must be ready to defend fair trade."
"But we cannot deny Asia its comparative advantages or the competitive industry that is lifting hundreds of millions in the developing world out of poverty. The only sustainable balance to that competition is the creativity, innovation and commitment of European companies themselves, reinforced with the appropriate help from political authorities".
