Ahmad Mukhtar, LLM

I work as a diplomat for Pakistan in the World Trade Organization (WTO), Geneva, Switzerland. My aim is to be a world renowned international lawyer in international trade/WTO law. I chose to study for a University of London LLM by distance learning because it met my desire to have a degree that was internationally recognized, of the highest quality, flexible and affordable.
