| The suspension of the Doha negotiations has led to a period of stagnation in multilateral trade cooperation,and the regional economic cooperation has become a new direction for the world to seek economic development.With the continuous enhancement of comprehensive national strength and the expansion of opening-up to the outside world,China has also been actively engaged in the Asia-Pacific Economic cooperation.However,there is a large number of economic cooperation frameworks exist in the Asia-Pacific region,such as ?Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement ?(RCEP),which China has actively promoted,the ?Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership?(CPTPP),which is currently the highest standard in the world,and Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific(FTAAP).Faced with such a complicated situation,this thesis mainly explores how China should choose and how to speed up the negotiation process in participating in the Asia-Pacific Regional Free Trade Agreement from the legal aspect.This thesis consists of four chapters:The first chapter is an introduction,which is divided into four sections: the first section introduces the background and significance of the selected topic;the second section sorts out the relevant research at home and abroad;the third section introduces the research scheme of this paper,namely the writing train of thought and research method of this paper;and the fourth section gives a brief explanation of the possible innovation points of this thesis.The second chapter is the status of the establishment of the Asia-Pacific regional Free Trade Agreement,which is divided into four sections: sections I,II and III,respectively introduce the background,main development processes and recent developments proposed by the ?Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement ?(RCEP),the ?
