China ‘firmly opposes’ EU import duties on Chinese electric cars: statement

China on Tuesday protested the European Commission’s plans to slap five-year import duties of up to 36 percent on Chinese electric cars.

“China firmly opposes and is highly concerned about this,” the commerce ministry said in a statement, adding “We hope that the European side will work together with the Chinese side in a rational and pragmatic manner … and take practical actions to avoid the escalation of trade frictions”.
