Iraq's Accession To World Trade Organization"Reality & Future Perspectives"

The research tries to show the range of Iraq's need to access WTO
and its entrance by conditions of accession will contribute in
achieving goals of Economic Development. In view of the probable
and negative effects on agricultural and industrial sectors resulted
from the accession of Iraq to world Trade Organization. The Iraqi
negotiator has to depend on the graduation of declining the custom
tariffs that imposed on imports and to gain more time with
cancelling constraints on trade of commodities and some forms of
support, guided to prefer local commodities with similar imported
products. The paper comes out with the result that Iraq should not
speed in this action even if the period would last ten or fifteen years
until the suitable & fertile environment would be prepared and the
rebuilding of Iraqi economy, providing bases of modern agriculture,
industry and Services, following up world developments and getting
high Competitive advantage.
