Organisation's Executive Committee. Generally speaking, the Assembly takes decisions by a simple majority in the form of resolutions. Each Member State representative has one vote.
The Executive Committee supervises the execution of the General Assembly decisions and the work of the Secretary General. The President and three Vice-Presidents must belong to different countries. The President of the Organisation is elected by the General Assembly for a period of four years. His role is to chair the General Assembly and Executive Committee and ensure that Interpol's activities conform with decisions made at these meetings.
The General Secretariat (the headquarters) located in Lyon, France, operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Officials from more than 80 countries work side-by-side in
any of the organisation’s four official languages: Arabic,
English, French and Spanish. The Secretariat has seven regional offices across the world, a liaison office at the United Nations in New York and special representatives at the EU in Brussels. The General Secretariat is headed by the Secretary General of the Organisation, who is appointed by the General Assembly for a period of 5 years and can be re-
elected. The Secretary General is the Organisation’s chief
full-time official. He is responsible for seeing that the day­to-day work of international police co-operation is carried out, and he is in charge of the implementation of the decisions of the General Assembly and Executive Committee.
Every member country has an Interpol office called a National Central Bureau which is staffed by its own police and keeps in touch with the General Secretariat.
Interpol's principle target is the international criminal, of which there are three main categories:
72
1) Criminals that operate in more than one country, such as smugglers, dealing mainly with gold and narcotics and other illegal drugs;
2) Criminals who commit crimes in one country and flee to another,
3) Criminals who do not travel at all but whose crimes affect other countries for example a counterfeiter of foreign banknotes.
Interpol's mission is to promote police cooperation: to help officers from different forces, countries, and cultures to cooperate with one another and work together to solve crime. So Interpol's work is largely related to public safety, terrorism and organised crime.
The official languages of Interpol are English, French, Spanish and Arabic.

The World Trade Organisation
The World Trade Organisation (WTO) is the only global international organisation dealing with the rules of trade between nations. Its goal is to help producers of goods and services, exporters, and importers conduct their business. This is the youngest trans-national structure but its history is great. The World Trade Organisation was founded on 1 January 1995. The WTO is the successor to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade signed in 1948.
The WTO has determined the following principles of trade agreements: all partners are equal; imported and local goods have equal rights on the domestic markets; trade barriers should be reduced through negotiations, and agreements must be transparent and predictable; fair competition, economic development and economic reforms must be supported.
The topmost decision-making body of the WTO is the Ministerial Conference, which usually meets every two years. It brings together all members of the WTO, represented either by countries or customs unions. The Ministerial Conference can take decisions on all matters under any of the multilateral trade agreements. The daily work of the Ministerial Conference is handled by three groups: the General Council, the Dispute Settlement
78
Body, and the Trade Policy Review Body. All three consist of the same membership – representatives of the WTO members.
1. The General Council is the WTO’s highest-level decision-making body. It is located in Geneva. It has representatives from all member governments and has the authority to act on behalf of the Ministerial Conference which meets about every two years. The Council acts on behalf of the Ministerial Council on the entire WTO affairs. The General Council also meets under different rules, such as the Dispute Settlement Body or the Trade Policy Review Body.
2. The Dispute Settlement Body is made up of all member governments, and is usually represented by ambassadors. The WTO’s procedure for resolving trade quarrels is under the Dispute Settlement Understanding and is vital for enforcing the rules and therefore for ensuring that trade flows smoothly.
3. The Trade Policy Review Body (TPRB) is open to all WTO members. The WTO General Council meets as the Trade Policy Review Body to undertake trade policy reviews of the WTO members.
13. Прочитайте словосочетания и скажите, что не входит в основные принципы, провозглашенные Всемирной торговой организацией.
all partners are equal; fair competition, economic development and economic reforms must be supported; imported and local goods have equal rights on the domestic markets; stability, based on democratic practices and good governance must be secured; tension in the region must be reduced; trade barriers should be reduced through negotiations and agreements must be transparent and predictable

The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in
Europe (OSCE)
The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe is the largest security-oriented organisation in the world. It is an international organisation for securing stability, based on democratic practices and good governance. The OSCE currently has 56 participating states from Europe, the Caucasus, Central Asia and North America.
The Organisation was established in 1973 as the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE). However talks had been mooted about a European security grouping since 1950s. But the Cold War had prevented any substantial progress until the talks at Finland Hall in Helsinki in November 1972. These talks were held at the suggestion of the Soviet Union to reduce tension in the region by furthering economic cooperation and to strengthen piece and security in Europe. A unique aspect of the OSCE is the non-binding status of its provisions. Rather than being a formal treaty, the OSCE Final Act represents a political commitment of all signatories to build security and cooperation in Europe.
The high-level decision making bodies of the organisation are the Summit and the Ministerial Council, with the weekly Permanent Council serving as the regular negotiating and decision-making body, under the leadership of the Chairman-in-Office, who holds the position for a year.
The OSCE Secretariat, under the direction of the Secretary General, provides operational support to the Organisation. It is based in Vienna, Austria and assisted by the office in Prague. The Organisation also has offices in Copenhagen, Geneva, The Hague, Prague and Warsaw.
