... But threat to WTO entry is on the hill

Article Abstract:

The Chinese government's furious response to the accidental bombing of its embassy by NATO forces in Yugoslavia has put a stumbling block to its acceptance as member of the World Trade Organization. However, the real obstacle to China's acceptance is not the stone-throwing students in Beijing but the textile and steel industry lobbyists in Washington. These industries are strongly opposed to the entry of cheap Chinese products in US markets.

Article Abstract:

China's cool response to Taiwan ships entering the Chinese ports of Xiamen and Fuzhou is indicative of just how difficult defrosting China-Taiwan relations will be. Taiwan President Chen Shuibian's efforts have essentially legalized the illegal smuggling of goods that has gone of between the countries for years, but China's reception underscores Chen's political problems.
