China again calls for US to handle current solar trade disputes fairly
Print Edition
China’s Ministry of Commerce yesterday reiterated its calls for the United States to objectively and fairly handle ongoing solar trade disputes after the latter initiated another probe into Chinese products.
The comments came after the US International Trade Commission last week approved anti-dumping and countervailing investigations on crystalline silicon photovoltaic products from China, paving the way for the Department of Commerce to set preliminary duties in the months ahead.
The trade panel ruled that there was a reasonable indication that a US industry was materially damaged by imports of such products, the ITC said in a statement.
An anonymous ministry official said the probe, launched on January 23, were aimed at “broadly restricting Chinese exports of silicon photovoltaic products,” which had already been hard hit by US anti-dumping duties and anti-subsidy duties on solar cells.
The ministry will continue to coordinate legal defense with Chinese businesses to protect their rights and interests, the official disclosed.
“China remains open for trade talks and hopes for sincere dialogue to resolve the issue to achieve a win-win result,” the official added.
The commerce department is set to decide on a preliminary countervailing duty in March and its anti-dumping duty ruling in June.
