I wish to refer to the consultations requested by the Republic of Korea pursuant to Articles 1 and 4 
of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes  (DSU), 
Article  XXII:1 of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (GATT 1994), Art icles 17.2 and 
17.3  of the Agreement on Implementation of Article VI of the General Agreement on Tariffs and 
Trade 1994  and Article 30 of the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures in the 
communication circulated to WTO Members on 20 February  2018 (WT/DS539/1, G/L/1211, 
G/ADP/D124/1, G/SCM/D118/1) titled "United States – Anti-dumping Countervailing Duties on 
Certain Products and the Use of Facts Available (DS539) ". My authorities have instructed me to 
notify the consulting Members and the Disp ute Settlement Body of the desire of the Republic of 
Kazakhstan to join these consultations, pursuant to the Article 4.11 of the DSU.  
In this dispute, Korea challenges the practice of the USDOC use of  "adverse facts available " as a 
rule or norm of general and prospective application when a producer or exporter is found to have 
failed to cooperate by not acting to the best of its ability.  
Kazakhstan has a substantial interest with respect to application and use of the relevant WTO 
provisions since Kazakhstan 's exports are currently under similar antidumping and countervailing 
investigations, in which USDOC has taken a preliminary determination based on "adverse facts 
available ".

UNITED STATES – CERTAIN MEASURES ON STEEL AND ALUMINIUM PRODUCTS  
COMMUNICATION FROM THE UNITED STATES  
The following communication, dated 29 August 2018 , from the delegation of the United States to 
the delegation of India, is circulated to the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB)  at the request 
of the United States.  
_______________  
 
 
The United States has received your letter dated 12 July 2018, requesting to join in the 
consultations requested by Russia as circulated in document WT/DS554/1.  
 
Russia's request concerns an action that the United States considers necessary for the protection 
of its essential security interests, taken by the President of the United States pursuant to Section 
232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962. Issues of national security are po litical matters not 
susceptible to review or capable of resolution by WTO dispute settlement. Every Member of the 
WTO retains the authority to determine for itself those matters that it considers necessary to the 
protection of its essential security intere sts, as is reflected in the text of Article XXI of the GATT 
1994.  
 
The United States does not consider that India's claim of a substantial trade interest in these 
consultations is well -founded. The United States is declining your request to join these 
consultations.
