Senior US and Chinese officials are set for a second day of talks on Thursday in Beijing on China’ s bid to join the World Trade Organization. A spokesman for the US delegation which is headed by trade representative Charlene Bareshevski described the first day of talks Wednesday as very constructive. The Beijing talks have been described as" make or break" discussions. The talks have taken on added urgency because WTO membership would give China a voice in setting policy when the trading body holds its summit later this month.
