2001年11月10日,世界贸易组织第四届部长级会议在卡塔尔首都多哈以全体协商一致的方式,审议并通过了中国入世的决定。一个月后,中国将成为世界贸易组织的正式成员。为了这一天的到来,中国谈了15年,回答了4万多个问题,用朱镕基总理的话说,是“黑发人谈成了白发人”。这样的执着,究竟为什么?概括起来说,这是我国改革开放和经济发展的自身需要,是我国深入参与经济全球化进程的需要, On November 10, 2001, the Fourth WTO Ministerial Conference examined and approved China’s WTO accession decision in the form of consensus through consensus in the capital of Qatar. A month later, China will become an official member of the World Trade Organization. In order to come this day, China has talked 15 years and answered more than 40,000 questions. In the words of Premier Zhu Rongji, it is “that black people have become white-haired people.” To sum up, this is our own need for reform, opening up and economic development. It is also the need of our country’s in-depth participation in the process of economic globalization.
