The following is excerpted from a 31 August 2012 news item by the World Trade Organization.
On 30 August 2012, Argentina notified the WTO Secretariat of a request for consultations with the United States on measures applied to the imports of Argentinian meat and other products of animal origin. Argentina claims that the restrictions, applied on sanitary grounds, don’t have scientific justification. It also claims that the measures of the United States appear to cancel or impair the benefits for Argentina derived from the relevant WTO Agreements.
