Question

Why was joining the WTO such a major step for China?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. "It forced China to be less secretive".

Explanation:

China joining the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001, was a keystone in the world economy because it opened this country to more exports and imports. In order to join the WTO, China had to make significant changes in the way the economy was handled in that country. Particularly, China was forced to be less secretive and correct certain concerns linked to transparency both internally and around the world.

Answer 2

The correct answer should be B. It forced China to be less secretive.

China had to reveal their economic policies in order to join the WTO and not much was known about how its economy worked before.
