Brussels has hit back at China slapping duties of up to 42.7 percent on some dairy products from the European Union, calling the move "unjustified". China's announcement is the latest in a trade spat with the EU that spans from food to electric vehicles.
The "duty deposits", which range from 21.9 percent to 42.7 percent, come into effect on Tuesday, impacting a range of items, including fresh and processed cheese, curd, blue cheese, and some milk and cream, the commerce ministry in Beijing said in a statement.
