    This document summarizes four WTO disputes between the US/other countries and the EU: 1) DS13 concerned EU regulations imposing duties on wheat and grain imports based on reference prices rather than transaction values. 2) DS14 concerned the EU's banana import regime. It was dropped due to the 2008 Geneva Agreement on banana trade. 3) DS34 ruled the EU's ban on hormone-treated meat violated WTO agreements. 4) DS138 also concerned the EU's banana import regime. It too was dropped due to the 2008 Geneva Agreement.
