The WTO will appoint an arbitrator to rule on a U.S. request to hit $1.3 billion in China goods with retaliatory duties in a dispute over China's subsidies for wheat, corn and rice producers, a WTO official said on Wednesday.
The U.S. maintains China has not complied with a 2019 WTO ruling against Chinese agricultural support programs in a case brought late in the Obama administration in 2016.
China did not appeal the decision, and the U.S. agreed to give Beijing until the end of June 2020 to comply.
China insists they have complied, but the U.S. said they do not think that is the case.
