Nickel Ore Export Restriction Policy: Implementation of Sanction Decisions of the World Trade Organization

Abstract

Indonesia's policy of restricting raw nickel exports has prompted the European Union to sue it at the World Trade Organization. The European Union won the lawsuit, prompting the Indonesian side to appeal. Indonesia believes that the policy of limiting nickel exports can increase economic income, but it is not yet known who will win Indonesia's appeal at the World Trade Organization, so it is possible that Indonesia will lose. Facing the results of the Indonesian side's appeal against the European Union's lawsuit at the World Trade Organization, it is necessary to know how to implement the World Trade Organization's decision so far. This is an important background for the Indonesian side to maintain the policy of restricting nickel ore exports.
