GENEVA, March 19 (Reuters) - The United States has appealed
against a World Trade Organization panel decision which
recommended in January that Washington revise a series of duties
imposed in the Obama era on South Korea, a Geneva-based trade
official said on Friday.
Since the WTO has no functioning Appellate Body to consider
the appeal, the case will join at least eight others, including
several U.S. cases, currently in legal limbo.
The duties were imposed on four grades of steel in 2016 and
on large power transformers in 2012 by the administration of
U.S. President Barack Obama.
