»»U.S. China WTO Case: EU Threatens Action Against China
Weeks after the United States lodged a complaint with the World Trade Organisation, Mandelson warned that the EU could follow in Washington’s footsteps with its own case at the global trade referee.
“I do not rule out initiating or joining action at the WTO if in our view China is failing to take its responsibilities seriously. […] China has agreed to protect (intellectual property rights). It did so when it joined the WTO and despite considerable efforts by the Chinese government, IPR protection in China remains patchy and uneven,” he told journalists in Brussels.
