In response to media reports, the EU side is studying extending the trade understanding between China and Europe in the field of hybrid vehicles to chemical and other fields. Ministry of Commerce spokesman Huang Ling said at a regular press conference held on the 29th that artificial restrictions on normal traders are suspected of violating WTO rules. Not only is it not beneficial to improving the competitiveness of the EU industry, but it will also increase the burden on downstream industries, thereby increasing the level of inflation in the EU and affecting the stability of the global industrial chain security supply chain. Huang Ling said that the recent second regular meeting of the Sino-European trade and investment consultation mechanism achieved positive progress and consensus on many outcomes, which shows that the two sides are not only willing, but also more capable and wise to resolve economic and trade differences through dialogue and negotiation. The Chinese side has stressed many times that China is not the root cause of the EU's problems, but rather a partner in solving the problems. It is willing to strengthen dialogue and consultation with the European side, continue to discuss and resolve each other's economic and trade concerns, and promote the upward balance and development of Sino-European trade. However, China resolutely opposes any protectionist act that misuses trade defense tools. If the European side persists in its actions and imposes discriminatory restrictions on Chinese products, China will surely take all necessary measures to firmly safeguard its own interests and the legitimate rights and interests of enterprises.
