THE Chinese government yesterday sent a delegation to Europe to negotiate with the European Union about a trade dispute over solar panel imports.
Led by Chong Quan, deputy representative for China's international trade talks, the mission will make representations with the governments of Germany and France as well as the European Commission.
The delegation will outline the Chinese position over the EU's decision to launch an anti-dumping probe into imports of solar panels and key components from China, said the Ministry of Commerce.
China has maintained its position to resolve the trade friction through consultation and cooperation, said its statement.
"We hope the EU adopt a cautious attitude when resorting to trade protection measures, and create conditions for cooperation and common development of the industry between both sides," the statement said.
The EU announced last week it would launch a 15-month probe into imports of solar panels and key components from China and may impose provisional anti-dumping duties within nine months.
Shortly after the EU announcement, the ministry spokesman Shen Danyang said China "deeply regretted" the EU decision, and said restricting China's solar panel products will hurt the interests of both sides and undermine the healthy development of the global solar and clean energy sector.
China has urged the EU to scrap existing protectionist measures and not to introduce new curbs before 2014.
