World Trade Organization (WTO) Dispute Settlement Body
The WTO Dispute Settlement Body is a system where member countries resolve trade disagreements. If a country believes another is unfairly imposing trade barriers or violating WTO agreements, they can bring the issue to this body. It provides a structured process for consultation, investigation, and, if needed, rulings or sanctions, ensuring that trade rules are followed and conflicts are managed peacefully. This mechanism helps maintain fair international trade by promoting adherence to agreed standards and reducing the likelihood of unresolved disputes escalating into broader trade conflicts.
