Russia and the WTO

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev met with the Swiss Foreign Minister Micheline Calmy-Rey to talk about Russia joining the World Trade Organization. Russia applied to join the WTO 18 years ago. Russia is the only major economy that is not apart of the WTO. In order Russia to be accepted all parties have to agree. The country of Georgia is the only one that has vetoed Russia's entrance. Some small issues still need to be talked about between countries.
