Russia’s attempt to join WTO this year failed not through its own fault. Successive administrations have been trying to negotiate entry into the organization since 1994.
Does one think that China would not have such economic gain if it wasn't apart of the WTO? Do you think America wouldn't be desperate to fill the store shelves with cheap products that China can provide? WTO is not needed! I don't understand why Russia lets Americans and the rest dangle a carrot over its head tormenting them. Dropping this whole issue and relying on normal trade which Russia has done for years will be enough. The main focus for Russia is market diversification. Russia's market is so boring!!! Oil goes up, the market goes up... Oil goes down, the market goes down. Diversify before its too late and stop chasing American Carrots around. It is a useless thing to do and waste of time.
