SEOUL, Nov 11 (Reuters) - British Prime Minister David Cameron said on Thursday that he believed the G20 summit would advance long-running efforts to get a global trade deal.
Asked about what he hoped to achieve from the G20 summit, Cameron said it was important to avoid a return of protectionism as the world recovered from the financial crisis.
"Look, even if we don't make progress on the biggest issue of all -- and I hope that we will -- the imbalances, we are going to get good progress on Doha and free trade, good progress on a free trade area in Africa," Cameron told the BBC in an interview.
Cameron said he also saw good progress on the banking regulation needed to prevent a repeat of the credit crisis. (Editing by Tomasz Janowski)
