Japan Liquor Tax Law (Shuzeiho) has 10 categories of alcoholic beverages including Shochu, which is distilled from potatoes, buckwheat or other grains. Vodka and other similar imports that would compete with Shochu since their properties are similar, were taxed at a rate 7-8 times high than the category for shochu.Which of these statements are FALSE?

Group of answer choices

The Japan Liquor Tax law violates the national treatment provisions of the GATT

Shochu is a "like product" and "directly competitive and substitutable" with other imported spirits.

Shochu is so very unique that it is not a "like product" to other imported spirits and cannot be "substituted by any other spirits".

Shochu is no longer made in Japan and therefore the Japan Liquor Tax Law does not affect the sale or taxing of other spirits.

c and d are both false.
