CITATIONS TO COMMENTS ON DECISION

English: Djakhongir Saidov Saidov, 7 Vindobona Journal of International Commercial Law and Arbitration (1/2003) 1-62 at n.87 (As an example of the manner in which the Tribunal applied Article 8 of the CISG: "[O]ne of the issues in dispute was the currency in which payment ought to have been made. One of the factors influencing the decision that US dollars were the currency of payment was the conduct of the respondent. The [Tribunal] held that the fact that the respondent (who later changed the terms of the letter of credit) had initially opened the letter of credit in US dollars could serve as evidence that the respondent had based himself on US dollars being the currency of payment.")
