The World Trade Organization (WTO), founded on January 1, 1995, aims to encourage international trade to flow as freely as possible, making sure that trade agreements are respected and that any disputes can be settled.
In the five years since its founding, the WTO has become well known as one of the world’s most powerful economic organizations, taking its place alongside the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.
The system of global rules for international trade, however, dates back half a century to 1948 when the General Agreement on Tariffs (关税) and Trade (GATT) was formed after World War II.
As time went by, it became clear that the GATT had two major weak points — the limited areas of trade it covered, and the lack of an effective system to settle disputes.
After seven years of trade talks ending in 1994 — the so-called Uruguay Round, it finally gave birth to the WTO, complete with an effective system to settle disputes and new rules covering trade in services and intellectual property.
Even after seven years of talks and 22 500 pages of agreements there were still problems, especially the difficult-to-deal-with areas of agriculture and services, which the member nations agreed to revisit in 2000.
The WTO, with its head office in Geneva, has 135 members with 30 more waiting to join.
From the passage we know that the GATT stopped working______.
