韓国、ＷＴＯでまた対日批判　輸出管理で「解決意志示さず」

　【ロンドン時事】世界貿易機関（ＷＴＯ）は６日、スイス・ジュネーブの本部での会議とテレビ会議を併用し、日本の貿易政策を審査する会合を開いた。会合では、韓国が半導体材料の輸出管理強化をめぐり、「日本は解決の意志を示さなかった」と従来の批判を繰り返した。
　韓国の白芝娥駐ジュネーブ国際機関代表部大使は「通常の対話では解決は難しいという結論に達した」とＷＴＯ提訴に至った理由を説明した上で、「日本が輸出管理強化で主張した根拠のない理由は、すべて無効になると信じている」と主張した。（2020/07/07-07:28）

South Korea reiterated its criticisms of Japan's tightened controls on semiconductor materials exports to the country at a meeting of the World Trade Organization on Monday.
   South Korea said that Japan did not show a willingness to resolve the issue, in the meeting to review Tokyo's trade policies held at the WTO headquarters in Geneva as well as over a videoconferencing system.
   Paik Ji-ah, South Korea's ambassador to international organizations in Geneva, said her country decided to resume the WTO dispute settlement procedures after reaching "the conclusion that it is difficult to see this situation progressing through normal dialogue."
   South Korea believes that "all the groundless and unfounded reasons suggested by Japan for its measures are no longer valid," Paik said.
   Seoul filed a complaint with the WTO in September last year against Japan's tightened export controls against the neighboring country, but suspended the procedures in November that year to engage in dialogue with Tokyo. South Korea decided to resume the WTO procedures last month.
