The Chinese government announced on Friday that it has lodged a complaint with the World Trade Organization (WTO) regarding the European Union's imposition of tariffs on electric vehicles manufactured in China. The move comes as China seeks to protect the interests and development rights of its electric vehicle industry and promote global cooperation in the transition to green technologies.
The EU has implemented provisional tariffs of up to 37.6% on electric vehicles originating from China, citing concerns that these vehicles benefit unfairly from government subsidies. In response, China asserts that its support for the electric vehicle sector complies with WTO regulations.
