U.S.: New market access key to restarting Doha talks

    The on-going APEC ministerial meeting, which prepares for the subsequent APEC economic leaders meeting, are giving top priority to the issue of restarting the Doha Round, she confirmed.

    Schwab said that despite the difficulties on resuming the Doha Round, the U.S. is still looking forward to expanding its trade ties with the APEC economies as two-thirds of the U.S. goods and services take place in the region, with 1.6 trillion US dollars of annual trade.

    On the voting by the U.S House of Representative against granting "permanent normal trade relations" (PNTR) status to Vietnam, she said that the Bush administration was disappointed but was confident the bill will pass when the Congress resumed meeting early December.

    APEC has 21 member economies, including China, the United States, Russia, Japan, Vietnam, Singapore and Australia, which account for more than a third of the world's population, over 50 percent of world's GDP and in excess of 40 percent of world trade.
