All three areas - normal trade relations, national treatment, and elimination of quotas and quantitative restrictions - are central to the principle of nondiscrimination in the GATT. Normal trade relations ensure that all member countries are treated equally in matters of trade. National treatment requires that imported goods are treated no less favorably than domestically produced goods. Elimination of quotas and quantitative restrictions means that countries cannot discriminate against any trading partner by imposing quotas or other restrictions on their goods.
