DECLARACIÓN DEL EXCMO. SR. KEN SAITO  
MINISTRO DE ECONOMÍA, COMERCIO E INDUSTRIA  
JAPÓN 
Addendum  
Doy las gracias al Presidente de la CM13, Ministro Al -Zeyoudi  de los EAU, y a la Directora General 
de la OMC, Dra . Ngozi. 
 
Habida cuenta de las graves dificultades a las que se enfrentan el comercio internacional y la 
economía mundial, nosotros, los Ministros de Comercio, tenemos la responsabilidad de demostrar 
que el sistema de comercio basado en normas sigue funcionando y debemos estar a la altura de la 
confianza que el mundo ha depositado en la OMC.  
 
En la CM13, quisiera lograr los tres objetivos siguientes en cooperación con todos los Miembros.  
 
En primer lugar, con nuestra voluntad política, tenemos que mostrar una vía concreta para 
restablecer  un sistema de solución de diferencias plenamente operativo y que funcione debidamente 
para finales de este año.  
 
En segundo lugar, la OMC ha de ser una institución pertine nte, que pueda ocuparse de cuestiones 
contemporáneas como la economía digital y la carrera de subvenciones industriales . A este respecto, 
acordemos prorrogar  la moratoria sobre la imposición de derechos de aduana a las transmisiones 
electrónicas e iniciar  debates sobre  el comercio y  la política  industrial . El Japón, en su calidad de 
coorganizador, también está decidido a trabajar con miras a concluir las negociaciones sobre el 
comercio electrónico de manera oportuna en 2024.  
 
En tercer lugar, procedamos a l a elaboración de normas incorporando  en el marco jurídico de la OMC 
los resultados de las negociaciones sobre la reglamentación nacional en el ámbito de los servicios y 
el Acuerdo sobre Facilitación de las Inversiones para el Desarrollo . Los avances en est e sentido 
beneficiarán a todos los Miembros, incluidos  los países en desarrollo.  
 
La CM13 tiene lugar el año en que se celebra el 30º aniversario del Acuerdo por el que se establece 
la OMC . El Japón contribuirá de manera constructiva al logro de resultados tangibles  en esta ocasión .
