US files complaint over European tech tariffs
GENEVA - The United States has filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization over European tariffs on high-tech good such as computer monitors and printers.
The global commerce body confirmed Wednesday that it received the U.S. complaint, which initiates a 60-day consultation period with the European Union. After that the U.S. may ask a WTO panel to rule on the dispute.
U.S. companies have long complained about the European import taxes.
The dispute concerns the 27-nation EU's compliance with a 1996 agreement on lowering tariffs for high-tech goods.
