BRASILIA, June 17 (Xinhua) -- Brazil on Friday welcomed the U.S. decision to change some of its anti-dumping measures imposed on Brazilian orange juice exports in accordance with a World Trade Organization ruling.

The U.S. delegation to the organization, or WTO, said earlier that it intended to implement the recommendations of the WTO's dispute settlement body.

According to a statement issued by Brazilian Foreign Ministry, known as Itamaraty, it is the first time the United States has not appealed the WTO ruling that the U.S. calculation methodology for anti-dumping duties violated international trade rules.

It is "an important shift of attitude," Itamaraty said.
