China urged Argentina to abide by the World Trade Organization rules, following an anti-dumping (AD) probe initiated by the South American nation into imports of Chinese steel pipes.
 
In the statement, Wang Hejun, Head of the country’s Trade Remedy and Investigation Bureau of China’s Ministry of Commerce, said China is “concerned” about some of the recent AD measures imposed by Argentina, including the AD probe on the Chinese welded and seamless pipes.
 
According to Chinese media, Argentina started 11 AD investigations over different Chinese products.
 
According to the Chinese official, the country has been advocating a “prudent, restrained and regulated approach” in trade remedy measures which “should be strictly in line with WTO rules and implemented in a fair and transparent manner.”
 
Wang said China hopes Argentina will abide by WTO rules and will protect Chinese companies' rights to appeal against such measures.
