Developments in Agreements on International Trade in Commercial Launch Services Franceska O. Schroeder On 3 March 1995, the United States and the People's Republic of China concluded their second Agreement on International Trade in Commercial Launch Services. The first agreement, which was signed on 26 January 1989 and expired on 31 December 1994, allowed China to launch nine commercial satellites into Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) for 'international customers'. The Apstar II, AsiaSat II, Intelsat 708, and Echostar I satellites were included under the 1989 Agreement The USA has a similar agreement with Russia and is in the process of negotiating an agreement with Ukraine. The US Government contends that such agreements with non-market economies or economies in transition are necessary to ensure the stability of the highly competitive international commercial launch-services market, which has been dominated by American and European providers. Not all members of the international satellite and launch-services community agree with this premise. Under the new US - China Agreement, China may launch eleven commercial satellites into GEO through 31 December 2001. Prices offered by China for these launches must be 'on a par' with prices offered by Western launch-service providers. If the Chinese offer is more than 15 percent less than the price for a comparable Western launch, China must consult with the United States.

April 15, 2004 Advertise Subscribe Site Map Front Page ... Wash. Golf Monthly Analysis: Russia-EU trade breakthrough By Peter Lavelle UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL Becoming a member of the WTO is an important step integrating Russia into the international economy. Membership would open the Russian market to foreign companies and investors. WTO membership also has an important political dimension: concrete evidence that President Vladimir Putin intends to push ahead of with liberal economic reforms at a time when many observers worry about the Kremlin's "creeping authoritarianism" at home. Russia has been negotiating its entry into the WTO since 1993. Progress has been very slow. The resolution of difficult issues with individual trading partners has made Russia's prospect of membership in the trade body more of a theoretical possibility than a meaningful reality. This could all change if Russia and the EU Russia's largest trading partner can come to terms with what up to now has been impassable: regulating Russia's domestic gas prices. Both Russia and the EU have had good reason to take a rigid position on this issue. That rigidity had Putin last autumn publicly lashing out at the EU for "arm-twisting" and promising that Russia would continue its stance.

71. Russia And The Arms Trade Press Release With the end of the cold war the international arms trade no longer has the same By 1994 russia accounted for less than 10 per cent of international http://editors.sipri.se/pubs/pressre/iabk2.html

Russia and the Arms Trade Edited by IAN ANTHONY REMINDER: A press conference will be held at the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) on 23 April at 2 p.m., local time. EMBARGO: Not for release until 23 April, 1300 GMT International transfers of conventional arms and related technologies are an important feature of international security. Because few states have an independent, indigenous capacity to develop and produce arms the behaviour of arms suppliers is one factor conditioning the global distribution of military power. During the cold war the Soviet Union and the United States used arms transfers and military assistance as one element in foreign and security policies that were primarily intended to further a political and ideological competition. With the end of the cold war the international arms trade no longer has the same politico-military underpinning. The international market for arms and military equipment was changed by the economic impact of the end of the cold war. Apart from the dominance of the Soviet Union, the United States and their respective allies as arms suppliers, the Warsaw Treaty Organization (WTO) and NATO were also important centres of demand for arms transfers and the main centres of arms production. After the WTO dissolved itself its former members reduced their military spending dramatically. The other alliance - NATO - also experienced a significant downturn in military spending. The Soviet decision making process and its system for executing decisions were destroyed when the political monopoly of the Communist Party ended and the state was dissolved. The new state of Russia had to develop decision-making procedures and executive agencies that were effective and consistent with a democratic political system.

To preserve trade union unity and to oppose the Governmental interference is item number one on the agenda of the Regular Third Congress of the Federation of Trade Unions of Belarus (FTUB) that opened yesterday in the Trade Union Headquarters. The day before the delegates were faced with a massive pressure campaign on behalf of President Lukashenko and his Administration. The very event of the Congress was endangered by a Governmental agencies’ decision to close a Trade Union Federation’s bank account under a formal pretext and to initiate criminal suits against its leaders. In their welcoming addresses the guests repeatedly stressed the importance of the Belarus trade unions struggle to protect not only their own independence but also the principles of freedom fundamental for the country’s well-being. Mark Blondel, Vice President of the ICFTU, said that the people of Belarus is now living under the last dictatorship in Europe. As to the weight of pressure imposed on the trade unions, Belarus is second only to Columbia where trade union leaders are being simply shot dead.

In our opinion, the United Nations, in close cooperation with international trade and financial institutions, can and must deliver a strong message in support of the above measures. Mr. Chairman
