WTO to rule on China claim against US
21-01-2009
The World Trade Organization has formed a panel to rule on a complaint by China that US anti-dumping measures on certain Chinese-made products violate trade rules. This comes after a meeting of the WTO's Dispute Settlement Body. China claims that anti-dumping investigations undertaken on steel pipes, tyres and laminated woven sacks, as well as the anti-dumping measures implemented by Washington, are against trade rules. The US insists that it hasn't flouted trade rules.
