Undersecretary Scalfarotto expressed great satisfaction for the decision of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) not to add any additional duty to Italian products as part of the six-monthly review of the measures adopted in implementation of the WTO ruling on Airbus subsidies, providing for increases only for specific categories of goods from France and Germany.
The US authorities had full authority to increase the volume of goods subject to tariff measures by more than 4 billion in total, potentially including Italian products such as wine, leather, oil, pasta etc.
