hi shamnad,
just read in today's newspaper (toi) about the joint action taken by india n brazil regarding the drug seizures (border/customs/transit) issue against the eu/netherland at wto. a move that shud ve been made earlier.

You're absolutely right Aditya. This is a good move and will put some pressure on teh EU. However, as I've indicated earlier, I'm not so certain about the prospects of winning, given that we have taken on the EU directly (as opposed to individual member countries that did the actual seizures). My bet is that this would be settled soon and we will not end up with a panel decision.
honestly, i ve not yet examined the issue from that angle. tho i remember your earlier post (about an year ago, i guess) in favour of taking on with the individual countries first. logically, your proposition appears to be a better route.
