Beijing (AFP) – Beijing said Wednesday it had lodged a complaint with the World Trade Organisation over the European Union's decision to impose hefty tariffs on Chinese-made electric cars.
The extra taxes of up to 35 percent were announced Tuesday after an EU probe found Chinese state subsidies were undercutting European automakers, but the move has faced opposition from Germany and Hungary, which fear provoking Beijing's ire and setting off a bitter trade war.
