SUMMARY:
The interagency Trade Policy Staff Committee (TPSC) sought public comments to assist the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) in the preparation of its annual report to Congress on Russia's implementation of its obligations as a Member of the World Trade Organization (WTO).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On August 24, 2022, the TPSC sought public comments to assist USTR in the preparation of its annual report to Congress on Russia's implementation of its obligations as a Member of the WTO. See 87 FR 52102 (Aug 24, 2022). The notice included a September 21, 2022 deadline for the submission of written comments and requests to testify at a virtual public hearing that was scheduled to take place on October 4, 2022. In response to the request for comments, USTR received four submissions, but did not receive any requests to participate in a virtual public hearing.
