WTO panel created over EU carbon border tax at Russia's request
Original: The WTO has created a commission on the dispute with the EU over CBAM at the request of Russia
The World Trade Organization has established a dispute panel to examine the EU's carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), following a request from Russia. Moscow argues the carbon levy discriminates against its exports, particularly steel and other metals. The move escalates a trade row over the EU's climate measure, which requires importers to pay for embedded carbon emissions.
Why now: Russia formally challenged the EU's carbon border tax at the WTO, prompting the creation of a dispute panel.
