Jorge Casto
Jorge Casto is the director of the World Trade Organisation’s legal affairs division, where he plays a crucial role in the organisation's dispute resolution processes. As the WTO grapples with a stalled dispute-resolution system and ongoing debates over digital trade tariffs, Casto emphasizes the importance of the WTO as the primary forum for international trade disputes. His insights highlight the challenges faced by the WTO, especially since the appellate body became non-functional in 2019, leading to significant implications for member countries navigating trade disputes.
