摘要：“中国诉美国轮胎特保措施案”始于2009年9月，2011年9月完结。案件涉及美国对进口自中国的特定轮胎产品实施特别保障措施的合法性。中关双方主要围绕“421条款”因果关系标准，“进口快速增长”的认定以及“进口快速增长”是否是造成实质损害的“一个重要原因”等方面展开争辩。通过本案的审理，WTO争端解决机构首次就《入世议定书》第16条的含义和适用做出解释，并首次梳理了该条与GATT1994第19条以及WTO《保障措施协定》之间的关系问题。WTO专家组进行评估后裁定美方特保措施没有违反世贸组织相关规则。中方提出上诉。上诉机构则维持了专家组的裁定意见。

United States--Measures Affecting Imports of Certain Passenger Vehi- cle and Light Truck Tires from China is a case discussing the legitimacy of a transi- tional product-specific safeguard measure under Paragraph 16 of the Protocol （WTO Protocol on the Accession of the People＇ s Republic of China） that the US applied to its imports of certain passenger vehicle and light truck tires from China pursuant to Section 421 of the Trade Act of 1974 of the United States. This was the first case fo- cusing on the transitional product-specific safeguard provisions in Paragraph 16 of the Protocol. Questions that had not been dealt with before in WTO dispute settlement were raised in this case, including the issue of the relationship between this particular safeguard measure and the global safeguard mechanism under the WTO Agreements： GATT Article XIX and the WTO Safeguards Agreement. After deliberation, the Panel found that the United States did not fail to comply with its obligations under Para- graph 16 of the Protocol and related articles of GATT 1994. The conclusion was up- held by the Appellate Body.
