政府、中国をＷＴＯ提訴　ステンレス製品に不当関税

　政府は１１日、中国が日本製ステンレス製品に課している反ダンピング（不当廉売）関税が不当だとして、世界貿易機関（ＷＴＯ）に提訴した。まずは２国間で協議をし、６０日以内に解決しなければ、裁判の一審に当たる紛争処理小委員会（パネル）での審理に移行する。
　中国は２０１９年７月、日本などから輸出されるステンレス製の熱延コイルや熱延鋼板が不当に安く国内産業が損害を受けているとして、反ダンピング関税（１８．１％もしくは２９．０％）の賦課を始めた。これにより、推計で日本に年間約１１億円の関税負担が生じているという。（2021/06/11-20:49）

The Japanese government filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization on Friday about China's antidumping duties on Japanese stainless steel products.
   Under the WTO process, the two countries will first hold bilateral talks on the matter, and if they fail to reach a settlement within 60 days, the case will be sent to a WTO panel that serves as a lower court.
   China imposed the antidumping duties in July 2019, claiming that hot-rolled stainless coils and sheets including from Japan were unfairly cheap and hurting its domestic industry.
   The Chinese duties are seen annually costing Japanese exporters a total of about 1.1 billion yen.
   The Japanese government has demanded that China scraps the duties, claiming that high-priced Japanese products do not compete against Chinese products.
