BRUSSELS—The United States secured a victory at the World Trade Organization (WTO) on Thursday in a case brought by China over U.S. measures to limit the import of solar panel cells.

A three-person WTO panel rejected all four of China’s claims and said that the measures did not breach global trade rules.
