Gaishi Automobile News On October 4, representatives of EU member states voted to pass the draft final ruling on the EU electric vehicle countervailing case submitted by the European Commission, proposing to impose a final countervailing duty on electric vehicles originating in China.
In this regard, Mercedes-Benz said,”We believe that the imposition of countervailing tariffs proposed by the European Commission was a mistake, which may lead to far-reaching negative results.
“, Mercedes-Benz wrote in a statement,”We firmly believe that countervailing tariffs can undermine the competitiveness of an industry in the long term.
Free trade and fair competition will bring prosperity, growth and innovation to all parties.
Therefore, we believe that the imposition of countervailing tariffs proposed by the European Commission was a mistake that could lead to far-reaching negative results.
, Today, it is more important than ever that the EU and China maintain dialogue and reach a negotiated solution that serves the interests of both parties.
, We believe that both parties can find such a solution.
It will take time for both parties to come up with such a solution.
We therefore call on the European Commission to postpone the implementation of the measures it has decided on.
, Mercedes-Benz has always supported free trade based on WTO rules, including the principle that all market participants should enjoy equal treatment.
Therefore, we urgently need to avoid measures that affect a mutually beneficial trade order.
