BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Global News@lemmy.zip•Canada initiates WTO dispute complaint on US steel, aluminium dutiesEnglish5·1 month agoThe complaint is dead on arrival. During his first time in office Trump blocked required appointments to the body for it to be able to function, and then Biden continued the blocking of appointments and the dispute body is dead now.
For over two decades, the WTO enabled States to take one another to court over violations of trade law. But, in 2017, the United States, under the Trump administration, unilaterally hamstrung the WTO’s binding dispute system by blocking appointments to its highest “court,” the Appellate Body. By December 2019, the body dropped below its three-person quorum, which effectively means it cannot hear appeals. Today, all seven Appellate Body seats are empty. Without an Appellate Body, States can abuse the WTO’s dispute system by appealing decisions “into the void,” leaving them in limbo and unenforceable.

It’s possible to suspend the voting rights of the country with unanimous vote, but it will get blocked by another wannabe authoritarian country like Italy or someone else who wants to use it to get in their own agenda (like Poland).
