MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexico’s candidate to lead the World Trade Organization is out of the race, a source with knowledge of the situation told Reuters on Thursday.
The WTO is due to announce on Friday which five of the eight candidates will go on to a second round of voting among members.
Mexico’s foreign ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the status of its candidate, Jesus Seade.
