Trade ministers from rich and poor countries have agreed to meet this Easter to make one more attempt to negotiate a global trade deal.
EU trade commissioner Peter Mandelson warned the trade round could fail if a deal was not struck this year.
The talks are stuck over high farm subsidies in Western countries, and the refusal of developing nations to open up to services and manufactured goods.
The trade ministers were meeting on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum.
