▌ key news, ▍ EU imposed tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs firmly opposed the first Electric Power on June 12, the European Commission announced that if a solution cannot be reached with the Chinese side, countervailing duties of 17.
4%, 20% and 38.
1% will be levied on YD, Geely Motor and SAIC, respectively, starting from July 4.
In addition to the above three car companies, the car companies that participated in the survey but were not sampled imposed an average anti-subsidy tax of 21%.
These companies include Tesla, BMW, Chery, FAW, Changan, Dongfeng, Great Wall, Zero, Nanjing Jinlong, Weilai, Xiaopeng, Aichi and Jianghuai, which have to pay a total of 31 per cent of tariffs.
However, Tesla, who applied, may apply a separate tax rate.
Other companies that do not cooperate with the investigation will face tariffs totaling 48.
1 per cent.
In response, a spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce responded that on June 12, the European Commission released a preliminary disclosure of the countervailing investigation into electric vehicles in China, which proposed to impose temporary countervailing duties on electric vehicles imported from China.
The European side ignores the facts and WTO rules, ignores China’s strong opposition many times, and insists on going its own way despite the appeals and dissuasion of the governments and industries of many EU member states.
China is highly concerned and strongly dissatisfied with this.
Chinese industry is deeply disappointed and resolutely opposes this.
China urges the EU to immediately correct its erroneous practices, earnestly implement the important consensus reached at the recent tripartite meeting between Chinese, French and EU leaders, and properly handle economic and trade frictions through dialogue and consultation.
China will closely follow the follow-up progress of the European side and will resolutely take all necessary measures to firmly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises.
Earlier on the 12th, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said in response to the news that the European Union would impose tariffs on electric vehicles imported from China from next month that China had stated its position many times and that this countervailing investigation was typical of protectionism.
Using this as an excuse, the European side imposes tariffs on electric vehicles imported from China, violates the principles of market economy and international trade rules, harms China-EU economic and trade cooperation and the stability of the global automobile production and supply chain, and ultimately harms Europe’s own interests.
We note that recently, political dignitaries of many European countries, industry representatives have expressed opposition to the European Commission’s investigation, believing that it is wrong to try to protect the European industry by raising taxes on Chinese electric vehicles, and that protectionism has no future.
Open cooperation is the right way, Lin Jian said.
“We urge the European side to abide by its commitment to support free trade and oppose protectionism.
Work with China to safeguard the overall situation of China-EU economic and trade cooperation.
China will take all necessary measures to firmly safeguard its legitimate rights and interests.
