CITATIONS TO COMMENTS ON DECISION

English: Djakhongir Saidov Saidov, 7 Vindobona Journal of International Commercial Law and Arbitration (1/2003) 1-62 at n.197 ("[T]he claimant demanded damages in the form of a difference in the exchange rate caused by the fact that the government of its country had substantially raised the rate of the national currency in relation to the US dollars which were the contract currency. As a result, the return of an advance payment in US dollars by the respondent to the claimant caused the claimant loss in a national currency. The Tribunal held that the change in the internal rate of a national currency against US dollars is a creditor's domestic affair and rejected the claim."); CISG-AC advisory opinion on Calculation of Damages under CISG Article 74 [Spring 2006] n.43 (related cases cited in addendum to opinion)
