Article summary

The European Commission has formally requested consultations at the World Trade Organization (WTO) regarding China's provisional anti-dumping measures on EU brandy imports. The Commission asserts that China's actions contravene WTO rules, citing a lack of evidence for threat to China's brandy industry, absence of causal link between alleged threat and EU imports, and insufficient grounds for case initiation. This move marks the first step in WTO dispute settlement procedures. Failing a satisfactory resolution, the EU may seek a WTO panel ruling on the matter. China was given 10 days to respond.
