Abstract: This analysis shows the issue of the relationship between the EU and the WTO and the interactions between European judges and the decisions of the WTO Dispute Settlement Body. The CJEU rejects or uses DSB decisions. In interpreting the fact that the competent Community institutions negotiate and conclude an agreement with third countries, it is considered that the freedom to agree with these third countries on the international effects of the provisions of the agreement is regulated and that the effects on which should produce them in the internal legal order of the Contracting Parties. Currently, the European Commission contributes to improving the procedures for resolving international economic and investment disputes, selects arbitrators and experts who, in the specific institutional organization, will help to implement the chapters on trade and sustainable development of EU trade agreements. Heuristically speaking, the research method used to design this study is a comparative one and concerns a certain methodological principle, in accordance with the object of analysis that will be presented.
