BRICS for immediate restoration of fully functioning WTO dispute settlement system

·Economic Times·Impact 3/5 · Notable

BRICS leaders have called for the immediate restoration of the World Trade Organization's dispute settlement system. This system allows countries to resolve trade disputes through a fair and impartial process. The current impasse has been caused by the US blocking appointments to the Appellate Body, which is a key part of the system. If restored, the WTO dispute settlement system would be a crucial tool for developing nations to resolve trade disputes and protect their interests.
