Conflict of Jurisdictions Between the WTO Dispute Settlement Body and Regional Systems
( Pp. 375-379)

The purpose of this research paper is to study the problem of conflict of jurisdictions between the WTO Dispute Settlement Body and regional integration systems. Based on the study of the existing international legal framework on the issue of determining jurisdiction over trade disputes, the author analyzes the position of the WTO regarding their jurisdiction in the presence of a conflict of jurisdictions. The main legal prerequisites for their resolution in alternative quasi-judicial bodies created within the framework of trading systems in the CIS region are highlighted. The classification of the main models of the intersection of jurisdictions is carried out. Results. As a result of studying the practice of resolving disputes within the framework of the global trading system, the author comes to the conclusion that there is no universal approach to the definition of jurisdiction in it. In this regard, the author proposes the use of the universal legal principle lis alibi pendens, according to which the simultaneous consideration of the dispute in several instances is excluded, except for cases when the initial court refused to accept it. In addition, conclusions are formulated on the advisability of a constructive dialogue between the WTO member states on the issue of the distribution of jurisdiction between the RTS and the WTO and on the operation of the dispute settlement mechanism between the RTS and the WTO.
