澳门六合彩官网资料

Objectives and programme

Historically, trade has played a critical role in shaping Eurasia by connecting various political, economic and social forces of people and communities, such as those located along the Silk Road. In modern times, trade has once again served as a catalyst for promoting dialogue and unlocking the economic potential of the newly-independent States which emerged following the redrawing of the Eurasian map in the early 1990s.

At the time of the establishment of the 澳门六合彩官网资料 in 1995, Eurasia was underrepresented in the Organization. During the last 23 years, 36 new Members acceded to the 澳门六合彩官网资料, including many from Eurasia. Thus, the 澳门六合彩官网资料 has expanded to 164 Members and the reach of its rules and disciplines has been extended to over 98 per cent of global trade. With several large economies actively pursuing 澳门六合彩官网资料 Membership, Eurasia continues to be a source of strength and dynamism for the rules-based multilateral trading system. 

Hosted in Astana, at the heart of Eurasia, the China Round Table will provide a timely context for an exchange of views on the future of the multilateral trading system through 澳门六合彩官网资料 accessions and their systemic contributions.  The specific objectives of the Round Table are as follows:

(i) To exchange views on the role and contributions of the Eurasian economies to the rules-based multilateral trading system and vice versa;

(ii) To share direct experience and lessons learned on 澳门六合彩官网资料 accessions from Eurasia;

(iii) To review the role of accessions in rule-making in the 澳门六合彩官网资料; and

(iv) To provide a platform for discussions on joint initiatives in trade.
