National Retail Federation Advocates for Improvements in WTO Rules
“One of
the key objectives of American retailers in the
Doha round is to obtain improvements and
clarifications in the rules governing the use of
anti-dumping and countervailing duty actions
against imported products that will prevent abusive
and unfair use of these measures and ensure that
they do not undermine the competitiveness of U.S.
retailers, manufacturers, and farmers,” NRF Vice
President and International Trade Counsel Erik
Autor said. “We will carefully review the text
released today to ascertain whether it can serve as
a basis for achieving the retail industry’s goals
in these negotiations.”
