"China has fundamental interest in an ambitious outcome itn these negotiations. Givenits relative openness, it has an offensive interest in ensuring a decrease of tariffs for many of its key manufactures in many third countries. On agriculture, having become a net food importer, the Doha negotiations can help China ensure adequate supply of food for its growing population at affordable and stable prices.
