11/05/2001 (Agence Europe) - During a meeting with the Union Presidency, this Friday, the Korean Ship Builders Association said it was concerned with the escalation of the dispute between Brussels and Seoul in their sector. The KSA, whose representatives have been received by the Swedish Trade Minister Leif Pagrotsky, once more rejected the European accusations, while feeling that an arbitration (binding: Ed.) by the WTO would benefit neither the Union nor South Korea.
