- Abstract
- This paper outlines the process of China's accession into the World Trade Organization (WTO) with
special focus given to the negotiations between the United States and China, and the European Union (EU) and
China. Various economic and political issues behind the scene explain why the US refused to accept China into the
WTO for the last 14 years. The economic and political changes in America coupled with the economic and political
changes in China placed the two countries in a position where a U.S-China bilateral agreement could be made. The
EU acted as a free rider in these negotiations such that it achieved most of its objectives from the conclusion of the
Sino-US negotiation. Moreover, the EU could have topped China's concession to the US if it had taken advantage of
the opportunity right before the PNTR vote carne to the US Congress.
