Press Release: European Commission Statement on the Publication of the Final Report in the ‘Airbus’ WTO case

In the final report in the 'Airbus case' published on 30 June 2010 (DS 316: Measures affecting Trade in Large Civil Aircraft) the WTO panel found that European support did not result in any job losses in the United States or lost profits to the US aircraft industry. The WTO panel rejected the allegation that support for Airbus caused 'material injury' to the US aircraft industry. It found that EU support did not damage Boeing's pricing or profitability and did not lead to a loss of jobs at the company. The panel's findings on the economic effects of Airbus' funding on the US aircraft industry are limited.
