俄罗斯经济发展和贸易部副部长梅德韦德科夫近日说,俄罗斯加入世界贸易组织的谈判遇到“障碍”,这可能使俄罗斯加入世贸组织的时间推迟到2007年,远远迟于俄罗斯设定的2003年的目标。梅德韦德科夫说,谈判中双方在5％重要贸易问题上存在分歧,过去一年的谈判没有取得明显进展。他说,我们在谈判中已经尽了全力,目前“没有取得进一步实质性进展的可能”。 Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s deputy minister for economic development and trade, said recently that Russia’s accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) has encountered “obstacles” that could delay Russia’s accession to the WTO until 2007, much later than Russia set The goal for 2003. Medvedev said that during the negotiation, both sides had differences on the 5% major trade issues and that no progress was made in the negotiations of the past year. He said that we have done our best in the negotiations and that “there is no possibility of further substantive progress”.
