That is the second arbitration continuing primarily based on the Multi-Social gathering Interim Attraction Arbitration Association (MPIA) to which each China and the EU are members.
On 4 July 2023, China and the EU notified the WTO Dispute Settlement Physique (DSB) that they had agreed on procedures for “arbitration below Article 25 of the DSU to determine any attraction from any last panel report” as issued to the events in dispute DS611, which the EU had initiated on 18 February 2022.
The panel report was issued to the events on a confidential foundation on 21 February 2025. On the EU’s request on 31 March — which below the agreed procedures is deemed as a joint request from each events — the dispute panel on this continuing suspended its work. It didn’t, due to this fact, flow into its last report back to all WTO members.
The EU has since then included the full textual content of the panel report in its Discover of Attraction, as offered for within the events’ agreed arbitration procedures. The Discover of Attraction and panel report is out there right here.
