The EU accused China on Tuesday of discriminating against European medical device producers in public contracts and warned of "decisive action" unless the issue can be resolved through dialogue with Beijing.

Commercial tensions between the two economic powers have been rising since the EU unleashed a raft of probes in 2024, to which China has retaliated by launching investigations of its own into EU products.
