China is studying the US request for consultations over intellectual property rights at the World Trade Organization (WTO), said the Ministry of Commerce.

The US government filed two complaints with the WTO on Monday against China over copyright piracy and restrictions on the sale of American movies, music and books.

China's delegation to the WTO has received the formal request from the United States, ministry spokesman Wang Xinpei said yesterday.
