There was a row sometime back about steel tarriffs that Bush imposed on imported steel. Some Euro countries took that to the WTO which permitted them to put sanctions on some US goods.
I think even Russia put sanctions on US poultry because of some problems with US meat quality.
Has anyone heard how that became resolved?
