WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 /PRNewswire/ — Congress and members of the executive branch will be visited by a team of European Union investigators this week, headed by senior E.U. trade official M. Jean-Francois Brakeland, head of the European Commission’s dispute settlement office. The E.U. delegation is looking into allegations that the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) breaches international treaties by continuing to enforce WTO-violating laws against E.U. businesses and individuals who once, but no longer, participated in the U.S. online gaming industry.

The E.U. delegation will be seeking answers from the U.S. before taking decisions on how best to protect E.U. interests, including to the possibility of implementing blocking-legislation to prevent U.S. enforcement in Europe; opening WTO proceedings on U.S. enforcement of its laws versus conflicting international commitments; and consideration of the sanctions which would be sought against U.S. industry if no amicable and fair solution can be found.
