What is the primary role of the World Trade Organization?

  1. To settle international debts

  2. To administer global trade agreements

  3. To oversee world health issues

  4. To promote global tourism

The correct answer is: To administer global trade agreements

The primary role of the World Trade Organization is to administer global trade agreements, such as the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). It is not responsible for settling international debts, overseeing world health issues, or promoting global tourism. While these may be important issues, they are not the primary focus of the WTO's responsibilities. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.
