A panel of the World Trade Organization (WTO) handed down a decision Thursday favorable to Brazil in its dispute with the European Union (EU) over trade in chickens.
The Brazilian Foreign Relations Ministry (Itamaraty) said it received the results of this dispute with great satisfaction. The content of the ruling will remain reserved until its text can be translated into the three official languages of the organization. The preliminary decision, which was disclosed in February, also was favorable to the Brazilian appeal and that of Thailand. The two countries challenged the EU customs reclassification for sending frozen and salted chicken.Gazeta Mercantil
