Protectionism is a risk to global growth - Gordhan
Trade protectionism is a serious risk to global economic growth as countries emerge from recession, South Africa's Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan said on Wednesday.
Protectionism around the globe, including the US, which is in election mode, is expected to grow as the world deals with the slowdown, but India needs to react only when legislation are converted into actual statute, commerce secretary Rahul Khullar said while releasing a Assocham report on doubling exports.
