China refutes EU claims on no EV dialogue
Print Edition
China鈥檚 commerce ministry said on Monday that the remarks by a European Union official, suggesting that China had not sought consultations on electric vehicle tariffs until recently despite the EU鈥檚 attempts to engage for months, were 鈥渟eriously inconsistent with the facts.鈥
China has been expressing strong opposition on bilateral and multilateral occasions since the EU launched its anti-subsidy probe into Chinese EVs in October 2023, a ministry spokesperson said in reply to a media query quoting Jorge Toledo Albinana, EU ambassador to China.
The spokesperson cited bilateral exchanges on the matter through face-to-face meetings and letters between top leaders and at ministerial levels over the past months.
鈥淐hina has demonstrated its utmost sincerity,鈥 said the spokesperson, adding that China hopes the Europeans will make joint efforts, demonstrate its sincerity, push forward the consultation process and reach a mutually acceptable solution.
China believes that trade protectionist measures are bad for the development of global green industries and cooperation in the automotive industry, and all countries should work together to promote the green transformation of the economy.
China resolutely opposes any unilateralist and protectionist practices that politicize or weaponize trade issues, he said, noting that in response to any actions that abuse the rules and suppress China, the country will take all necessary measures to safeguard its own interests.
