News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

GENEVAMexico is launching an appeal at the World Trade Organisation in a case involving a controversial method used by Washington to calculate duties on unfairly priced imports, a Mexican diplomat said on Wednesday.

Mexico's move is the latest challenge to a system known as 'zeroing' which has pitted the United States against the rest of the WTO's 151 members, and created confusion in the WTO's own system for resolving trade disputes.

Mexico said in a filing with the WTO, dated Jan. 31, that it intended to appeal against a decision by a WTO dispute settlement panel in a case involving U.S. anti-dumping measures on imports of stainless steel from Mexico.
