The official representative of the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China, He Yadong, said that China expects the EU to abandon protectionist measures against Chinese companies. According to him, instead of restrictions, the parties should focus on developing open interaction.
Beijing stressed its readiness to conclude bilateral trade agreements and supported the initiatives of European leaders in this direction. At the same time, it is noted that in recent years, the EU has been more actively using investigative tools and imposing restrictions affecting Chinese businesses.
The Chinese side also pointed out the close relationship between the production chains of China and the EU countries. Beijing believes that the parties still have a solid base for cooperation, which can be used to further develop trade and economic relations.
