Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the involvement of Russia in the World Trade Organization (WTO). It describes the benefits of being a member of the WTO and how this would impact Russia. The paper describes the history of Russia seeking admittance to the WTO and the United States' role in this process. The paper then looks at the current situation with regards to Russia and the WTO.

From the Paper:

"Vladimir Putin in recent months has claimed that the United States has been increasing the demands put on Russia for membership, though he has not been specific about what these might be. The United States denies new requirements and points only to the normal requirements asked of every member for food safety standards, clear customs rules, and better protection for intellectual property rights. These have been the sticking points, and Russia will have to agree on these elements just as have all other members of the WTO."
