Boeing-Airbus Compliance Report Sent To U.S., EU; Release In September

摘要

The long-awaited World Trade Organization compliance panel report on European Union subsidies to Airbus has been circulated to the United States and EU and will be made available to members in September, according to Geneva sources, moving forward a dispute that has long devoured the time, energy and resources of the Dispute Settlement Body's secretariat. Geneva sources on April 22 said the compliance report was delivered to parties to the dispute in March and will be circulated to WTO members by early September. No firm date has been set for the release because last-minute delays may arise in technical procedural work, such as translating the report into the three official WTO languages - French, Spanish and English - according to one Geneva source.
