Abstract: |
On 7 August 2014, the Appellate Body issued three Appellate Body Reports in one single document
on China-measures related to the exportation of rare earths, tungsten, and molybdenum. These reports declare
that the Rare Earth Case which lasted for years ends in failure. How does the related measures obtain recognition
on resources and environment form the WTO? The decision-making on this case shows that the WTO claims
reasonable invoking on Article 20 of GATT1994. As for China, it should abide by reasonable invoking on Article 20
of GATT1994 to deal with similar disputes in future. At the same time, under the framework of the WTO’s dynamic
development, the failure in specific case should not make an mitigation on China’s consideration and efforts to
survey and propel an equitable and rational mechanism of the WTO |
Key words: Rare Earth case reasonable invoking Accession Protocol to the WTO Article 20 of GATT1994 |
