PENGATURAN TENTANG PEMBATASAN DAN PELARANGAN EKSPOR OLEH WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION (WTO): KAJIAN YURIDIS TERHADAP PERJANJIAN ANTARA INDONESIA DENGAN UNI EROPA

Abstract

Indonesia must comply with the provisions of multilateral trade agreements negotiated in the World Trade Organization (WTO) as a result of the ratification of the WTO agreement in 1994. The coherence of Indonesia's trade policies in relation to the WTO agreements is often questioned by other WTO members. In this case, the policy of limiting the export of raw materials, especially nickel, was opposed by the European Union at the WTO at the end of 2019. The European Union sued a number of restrictions that were seen as contradictory to Article XI (1) of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (GATT 1994). In addition, the export restriction policy has undergone several changes in the past. This research is intended to analyze the application of restrictions and bans on exports by studying the agreements between Indonesia and the European Union.
