BEIJING
\nA spokesman for China\u2019s Ministry of Commerce recently responded to a reporter\u2019s question about the EU\u2019s counter-subsidies investigation into China\u2019s electric vehicles.
\nOn October 4, the European Commission issued an announcement that it had decided to launch a counter-subsidies investigation into electric vehicle imports from China, a reporter asked.
\nWhat is China\u2019s comment on this? The Chinese spokesperson responded by saying that the EU has only started this investigation based on its own assumptions about the so-called subsidy items and risks of harm, but there is no concrete evidence for this, and it is also a violation of the relevant rules of the WTO.
\nThe EU asked China to conduct consultations in a very short time and provide effective consultation materials, which seriously damaged China\u2019s trade rights.
\nThe spokesman added that at the 10th China-EU High-Level Economic and Trade Dialogue held recently, China made it clear that the EU would protect its industry in the name of \u201cfair trade\u201d. The investigative measures taken are essentially protectionist measures, which will seriously affect the global automotive industry chain and supply chain, including the EU, and will have a negative impact on China-EU economic and trade relations.
\nChina urges the EU to strive to maintain the stability of the global industrial chain and supply chain and the stability of the China-EU comprehensive strategic partnership, to make wise use of trade assistance measures, new energy, including electric vehicles.
\n Promote industry cooperation, and create a fair and non-discriminatory market environment for the joint development of the China-EU electric vehicle industry.
\nChina will pay close attention to the European side\u2019s follow-up investigation procedures and firmly protect the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
