Abstract: Abstract This comment focuses on the blurring distinction between “trade in goods” and “trade in services” that may jeopardize effective functioning of international disciplines under the WTO, FTAs and the Energy Charter Treaty. Referring to the Eurodif v. US case in the United States, it casts light on the contemporary debates over the concept of goods and services that both international regimes originally took for granted. It also takes not of the International Energy Charter adopted in May 2015 and ongoing negotiations for the Environmental Goods Agreement.
