Abstract
This article provides a summary and a commentary of the panel’s decision in United States - Safeguard on Photovoltaic Products. While it notes that the treatment of unforeseen developments and the effect of GATT obligations seems to be different from that accorded by other panels, the article also highlights that the panel’s treatment of other substantive issues seems to be in line with the standard of review set out in previous WTO case law.
