The diplomacy was carried out by being actively involved in the WIPO IGC-GRTKF negotiations, initiates the formation of Like-Minded Countries Meetings (LMCs) to consolidate a joint position in the coalition with other developing countries. However, the LMCs coalition doesn't yet have sufficient strength in the IGC-GRTKF negotiations.
