"Boeing and Airbus have been accusing one another of receiving illegal government subsidies for years. This game of reciprocal complaints being examined by the WTO’s dispute settlement body continues to fuel the row between the two largest aircraft manufacturers in the world. If confirmed and acknowledged, these accusations of direct subsidies represent serious obstacles to the global economic system and distort the free market with serious damage to the competitive regime laid down by the WTO. At a time when we are defending a global system free of any obstacles, this trade war is a glitch in global competition, which is supposed to be fair and just. Only the WTO’s competent body will be able to offer impartial conclusions. Nonetheless, we know that Boeing wants to position itself as the world leader and this complaint must not turn into an attempt to destabilise Airbus. This trade dispute is delicate but should not damage trans-Atlantic cooperation at a time when the Doha Round is at a standstill and a favourable outcome is hoped for by the end of the year."@en1
