The World Trade Organization (WTO) is a global organization that helps countries trade with each other in a fair and organized way. This means that countries agree on rules about things like tariffs (taxes on imports) and subsidies for companies. The WTO can help countries to make sure that everyone obeys the same rules when it comes to trade.
But some people criticize the WTO because they think it favors the rich countries over the poorer countries. They say that the WTO's rules are too complicated and make it hard for poorer countries to compete with the larger, richer countries. They also say that the WTO is run by a small group of powerful countries and that other countries don't get a say in how it is run. Critics also say that the WTO's rules are outdated and need to be updated to reflect today's global economy.
