U.S. TO RESUME WTO TALKS WITH CHINA
    U.S. trade officials said they will resume talks with their Chinese counterparts this week over China’s entry into the World Trade Organization.
    China’s willingness to return to the table has raised speculation that a deal will be signed when President Clinton meets with China President Jiang Zemin later this month in Australia.
    China suspended WTO negotiations in April after the U.S. accidentally bombed the Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia during the war over Kosovo.
    Trade concessions made by the Chinese in March for WTO entrance included promises to fully liberalize China’s transportation and distribution markets within four years.
