Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

While the GATT agreement was incorporated into the WTO agreement, there are two important differences. The GATT focuses on promoting trade in goods, whereas the WTO's mandate is broader. The WTO is responsible for trade in goods, trade in services, international intellectual property protection, and trade-related investment. Also, the WTO's enforcement powers are much stronger than those of the GATT.
