Língua Inglesa / Compreensão de texto escrito em língua inglesa


The World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements
cover goods, services and intellectual property. They spell out
the principles of liberalization, and the permitted exceptions.
They include individual countries’ commitments to lower
customs tariffs and other trade barriers, and to open and keep
open services markets. They set procedures for settling
disputes. These agreements are not static; they are negotiated
from time to time and new agreements can be added to the
package.
The WTO’s procedure for resolving trade quarrels
under the Dispute Settlement Understanding is vital for
enforcing the rules and therefore for ensuring that trade flows
smoothly. Countries bring disputes to the WTO if they think
their rights under the agreements are being infringed.
Judgments by specially appointed independent experts are
based on interpretations of the agreements and individual
countries’ commitments.
WTO agreements contain special provisions for
developing countries, including longer time periods to
implement agreements and commitments, measures to increase
their trading opportunities, and support to help them build their
trade capacity, to handle disputes and to implement technical
standards. The WTO organizes hundreds of technical
cooperation missions to developing countries annually. It also
holds numerous courses each year in Geneva for government
officials. Aid for trade aims to help poor countries develop the
skills and infrastructure needed to expand their trade. Internet: www.wto.org (adapted).
