China requests WTO panel to address IRA electric vehicle subsidies dispute with US.

China has asked the World Trade Organization (WTO) to establish an expert panel to consider a dispute settlement against the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act's (IRA) electric vehicle subsidies. China opened the WTO dispute in late March, but the U.S. has failed to reach a solution with China through consultations. The issue concerns the IRA's provisions, which exclude products from WTO members like China and create trade barriers for green energy transition.
