I am delighted to welcome you at the beginning of the opening of the "technical barriers to trade", organized by the Arab Monetary Fund in cooperation with the World Trade Organization, in the hope that this session will contribute to the enrichment of your technical barriers that hinder global trade.
Dear Sisters and brothers
The Arab Monetary Fund attaches great importance to capacity-building for Arabic in the trade. So many years have reached an understanding with the World Trade Organization to the Organization and holding of joint workshops and courses on topics of world trade. Indeed, during the past decade many activities to provide technical assistance and institutional building of Arabic to assist States to join the World Trade Organization, and take advantage of this membership. The implications of accession to the WTO is trade liberalization, which helps to increase trade and attract investments and the development of laws and legislation concerning trade between the States.

As you know, require membership in the World Trade Organization to open markets and liberalize trade. This means the removal or reduction of tariffs and reduce trade protection and the removal of tariff and non-tariff restrictions, such as constraints and obstacles to investment and the development of markets. And the most open to international trade are often more competitive and higher rates of economic growth than States which place restrictions on international trade.

In conclusion, I would like to thank the WTO for its cooperation with us in the past years, hoping that this will continue for the benefit of our Arabic. I would also like to thank the experts of the organization headed by Mr. Samir Saif Al-yazal, I would like to thank you all and wish you success and a nice stay in Abu Dhabi.
