From Reuters:
China has appealed against a ruling by the World Trade Organisation (WTO) that its import regime for car parts is illegal, its first defeat in a dispute at the international trade body, the WTO said on Monday.
The WTO said in a statement that a meeting of its dispute settlement body scheduled for Monday which was due to adopt the ruling had been cancelled because the reports had been appealed.
The WTO’s Appellate Body now has up to three months to review the case.
A WTO dispute panel, ruling in three challenges brought by the United States, Canada and the European Union, found in July that China’s import tariffs broke international trade rules.
