Calling all WTO experts

According to today's Guardian the  WTO has said that European countries can't ban GM foods.

What I'm wondering is - does this stop them from demanding that GM foods be labelled, so that people can make their own choices about whether they want to eat them or not?

Lots of reasons, but for example, last time I checked the EU was being lobbied to define "organic" as containing up to 0.9% GM *without* this information having to appear on the label.

With no attempt at hyperbole, I do believe that the evils created by agrobusiness run deep and wide.
