- China has lodged a case against the United States with the World Trade Organization(WTO) over U.S. import duties.
- The move was taken after the United States began imposing 15% tariffs on a variety of Chinese goods, including footwear, smart watches, and flat-panel televisions.
- China has said that the latest tariff actions by US has violated the consensus reached by the leaders of China and the United States in a meeting in Osaka,Japan.
- However,the United States has said that it has adopted tariff measures to try to obtain the elimination of China’s unfair and disruptive technology transfer policies.
- The US has also said that its actions were exempt from WTO rules because they were measures necessary to protect public morals which is a clause used in the past to argue for trade restrictions over gambling, animal rights and public broadcasting.
