Most Read U.S.says sees no reason to reduce tariffs in EU aircraft subsidy case WASHINGTON, Dec 2 (Reuters) – The U.S.Trade Representative’s office on Monday said it saw no basis in Monday’s World Trade Organization report that would justify reducing U.S.retaliatory tariffs by $2 billion as Europe’s Airbus has suggested.”Nothing in today’s report even suggests that the (WTO) compliance panel found that the amount has decreased,” said a USTR spokesman.”There is accordingly no basis for Airbus’s assertions that the report ‘implies’ that the U.S.countermeasures should be reduced by $2 billion.” USTR earlier said it could increase tariffs on a wider range of European goods after the WTO rejected European Union claims that it no longer provides subsidies to Airbus.
Airbus had said Washington should slash its authorized tariffs of $7.5 billion to $5.5 billion since the WTO dropped its previous references to its A380 causing lost sales to Boeing.
