FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tuesday,
For the first time, American firms have unprecedented freedom to trade in China by buying and selling their own products there.
The average Chinese tariff on most industrial products will be reduced from the 1997 average of 25 percent to 8 percent by January 2004, making it easier to get American goods in the hands of Chinese consumers. China has
joined the WTO at a historic moment and we look forward to their full
participation in future WTO work.
