MUMBAI – As if undermining the World Trade Organization’s Doha Round of global free-trade talks was not bad enough (the last ministerial meeting in Geneva produced barely a squeak), the United States has compounded its folly by actively promoting the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). President Barack Obama announced this with nine Asian countries during his recent trip to the region.
发自孟买——似乎暗中破坏世界贸易组织多哈回合全球自由贸易谈判还不够出格（在日内瓦举行的最后一次部长级会议在一片废话中闭幕），美国又继续做出愚蠢举动——积极推动跨太平洋伙伴关系协议（简称TPP）。美国总统奥巴马在最近出访该地区时和九个亚洲国家一道宣布了这一消息。
