Indonesia Lost Bulk of WTO Discrimination Case on U.S. Clove-Cigarette Ban

Indonesia Lost Bulk of WTO Discrimination Case on U.S. Clove-Cigarette Ban - Bloomberg:

A U.S. ban on clove cigarettes that’s designed to prevent teenagers from starting to smoke is discriminatory, though Indonesia failed to prove that it is unnecessary, World Trade Organization judges said.

Indonesia argued that U.S. tobacco legislation, signed by PresidentBarack Obama in June 2009, breaks global trade rules because it outlaws cloves and not the mint used to make menthol cigarettes. Indonesia, the world’s largest producer of clove cigarettes, or kreteks, made by companies such as PT Gudang Garam, has exports valued at $500 million a year, a fifth of which go to the U.S.

Interesting reading.
Not sure what if anything happens next,because it isn't clear to me what such a half victory really means.
