For the first time in Japan, the G20 = 20 major countries summit will be held in Osaka this month. One of the agenda items is WTO = Reform of the World Trade Organization. In this G20, the world is paying attention to the summit meeting of President Trump and vice president, but it is a theme closely related to the trade friction between the United States and China. And Japan is also a party to that debate. Why does the WTO need reform? WTO in the first place ...? I heard three keymen in Geneva, Switzerland, where the headquarters is located. (Vienna branch director Ken Ohara / London branch reporter Teruyuki Kurihara)
