China welcomes WTO ruling on chicken duties

China yesterday welcomed part of a World Trade Organization ruling on a dispute over the country’s anti-dumping and countervailing duty measures on chicken products from the United States.

In a statement on its website, the Ministry of Commerce said the WTO panel report rejected some of the US side’s arguments and backed some of the Chinese side’s arguments.

The Chinese side reserves opinions on the ruling over the information disclosure of basic facts and urged the WTO panel to clarify the problems in future cases, the statement said.

The WTO panel report, which was circulated on August 2 and adopted by the WTO Dispute Settlement Body on Wednesday, supported China’s reasons regarding how domestic industry and trade level differences are determined.

China imposed anti-dumping duties on chicken products from the US in September 2010, claiming they were subsidized and then dumped in the Chinese market at a price less than fair value.
