World Trade Organization
- The WTO is the only
international body dealing with the rules of trade between nations. At its
heart are the WTO agreements, the legal ground-rules for international
commerce and for trade policy. The agreements have three main objectives: to
help trade flow as freely as possible, to achieve further liberalization
gradually through negotiation, and to set up an impartial means of settling
disputes.
