El 31 de julio de 2015, el Órgano de Solución de Diferencias ("OSD") adoptó las resoluciones y recomendaciones del informe del Grupo Especial, modificado por el informe del Órgano de 
Apelación, en el asunto Perú - Derecho adicional sobre las importaciones de determinados 
productos agropecuarios (DS457). En la reunión del OSD celebrada el 31 de agosto de 2015, el 
Perú declaró que tenía el propósito de aplicar las resoluciones y recomendaciones del OSD, y 
solicitó un plazo prudencial para hacerlo. 
 Con arreglo al párrafo 3 b) del artículo 21 del Entendimiento relativo a las normas y 
procedimientos por los que se rige la solución de diferencias  ("ESD"), Guatemala ha celebrado 
consultas con el Perú a fin de fijar de común acuerdo un plazo prudencial para la aplicación de las 
resoluciones y recomendaciones del informe del OSD. En una carta de fecha 14 de septiembre de 2015
1, las partes prorrogaron el plazo destinado a mantener conversaciones con el fin de llegar 
a una solución mutuamente convenida. Sin embargo, hasta la fecha las partes no han podido 
alcanzar un acuerdo. En consecuencia, Guatemala solicita que el plazo prudencial sea determinado mediante arbitraje vinculante de conformidad con el párrafo 3 c) del artículo 21 del ESD. 
 
Guatemala aguarda con interés la celebración de consultas con el Perú sobre la designación del árbitro en los próximos 10 días, con arreglo a lo previsto en la nota 12 del ESD.

COMMUNICATION DE L'AUSTRALIE 
 
Suggestions sur les principes concernant les TIC 
Contribution au Programme de travail 
sur le commerce électronique 
  
La communication ci-après, datée du 25 septe mbre 2012 et adressée par la délégation de 
l'Australie, est distribuée aux membres du Conseil du commerce des services.  
_______________ 
  
1. L'Australie juge utile de poursuivre la discu ssion sur les Principes concernant les services liés 
aux technologies de l'information et de la comm unication (principes concernant les TIC) distribués 
par l'Union européenne et les États-Unis (S/C/W /338) au Conseil du comme rce des services (CCS). 
2. Ces principes bilatéraux constituent un bon point  de départ pour un examen multilatéral.  
Outre notre réflexion sur la manière dont les principes pourraient fonctionner dans un contexte multilatéral, l'Australie estime impor tant d'ajouter trois principes supplémentaires concernant les TIC 
dans les discussions ultérieures: 
a) Protection des consommateurs en ligne:  Les Membres devraient reconnaître qu'il est 
important de maintenir et d'adopter des m esures pour protéger les consommateurs qui 
recourent au commerce électronique, afin d'accroître le bien-être des consommateurs et leur confiance dans le commerce électronique.  Ils devraient également encourager la coopération entre leurs organismes nati onaux respectifs chargés de la protection 
des consommateurs pour des activités liées au commerce électronique transfrontières. 
b) Protection des données personnelles en ligne:  Les Membres devraient adopter ou 
maintenir un cadre juridique national garantissant la protection des données 
personnelles des utilisateurs du commerce électronique.  Les autorités publiques devraient échanger des renseignements sur leurs expériences dans la protection des données personnelles des utilisateurs du commerce électronique. 
c) Messages commerciaux électroniques non so llicités (Spam):  Les Membres devraient 
s'efforcer de promouvoir des mesures de réglementation des messages commerciaux 
électroniques non sollicités.  Ils devraient, sous réserve de leurs lois et réglementations nationales respectives, coopére r au niveau bilatéral et dans le cadre 
de forums internationaux au sujet de la réglementation des messages commerciaux 
électroniques non sollicités.  Les domaines de coopération peuvent inclure, sans 
toutefois s'y limiter, l'échange de renseigne ments sur les approches du point de vue de 
la technique, de l'éducation et des po litiques à l'égard des messages commerciaux 
électroniques non sollicités. S/C/W/349 
Page 2  
 
  3. Ces trois principes visent à accroître la conf iance des consommateurs et des entreprises dans 
le commerce électronique.  Un manque de confiance a, à ce jour, largement contribué à freiner la 
croissance et le développement du commerce électr onique en Australie et dans nombre d'autres 
Membres.

Ministerial Conference  
Eleventh Session  
Buenos Aires, 10 -13 December 2017  Original: English  
 
 
STATEMENT BY H.E. MR  FATIH METİN  
DEPUTY MINISTER  
TURKEY 
Let me first join to thank Argentina for hosting the 11th WTO Ministerial Conference.  
 
Trade is the main wheel of economic growth  and prosperity. In today’s world, trade is more tied to 
global value chains and there is strong interdependence among countries.  However, we are 
witnessing a growing number of protectionist trade policies around the world. In time, these 
policies may caus e those chains to separate. And a single chain ring is doomed to rust over time. 
We need to believe in the power of the World Trade Organization more than ever, which ensures 
that those chains connect more tightly together.  
 
WTO makes the global trade env ironment much less vulnerable to economic shocks. Multilateral 
system through WTO has enabled an environment for economic growth and also played a vital role 
for development and job creation. We need that role to continue and the WTO’s negotiating 
function  should remain strong with full capacity. In this regard, Trade Facilitation Agreement, for 
instance, is a giant success to ensure that WTO negotiations still deliver and drives economic 
growth.  
 
As for our agenda for MC11, it is our priority to reach a fa ir and development -oriented outcome on 
domestic support. W e are of the view that imbalances with regard to domestic support 
commitments should be eliminated.  
 
An effective SSM is an essential tool for Developing Countries’ food security and rural 
developme nt.  
 
In the field of fisheries subsidies, all members should try their best to achieve a decisive outcome 
that will protect wild marine life for sustainable yield of fisheries sources.  
 
For trade in services, we have achieved remarkable progress especial ly on Domestic Regulation 
disciplines and we can achieve a tangible outcome at the MC11.  
 
As the main source of employment and growth, facilitating MSMEs (micro, small and medium 
enterprises) integration to international trade is of utmost importance.   
 
E-commerce is another "new issue " that we cannot afford to sit back and lose the opportunity to 
fuel our economies.  
 
Last but not least, another critical item for Turkey is our proposal on cooperation for providing 
employment for displaced Syrians in host countries.  
 
With our Ministerial Decision proposal, our aim is to utilize "trade " as a means for more equitable 
sharing of responsibility. Adopting this decision will be an important sign of international solidarity 
and cooperation in terms of coping with  the side effects of this continuing important humanitarian 
crisis. Lastly, once again, I would like to express Turkey’s readiness and firm commitment to work 
with other members to contribute to the multilateral trading system.

como a otras medidas que rigen la venta de vino mantenidas por las provincias de Columbia 
Británica , Ontario, Quebec  y Nueva Escocia y por el Gobierno federal canadiense . El año pasado los 
Estados Unidos solicitaron la celeb ración de consultas con el Canadá con respecto a las medidas de

La Administración estadounidense trabajará en estrecha colaboración con el Congreso de los
