China's Trade Tussle: Brandies vs. Electric Vehicles

China defends its anti-dumping measures on EU brandies as legitimate, while criticizing the EU's actions against Chinese electric vehicles for lacking factual and legal basis, violating WTO rules. China has engaged the WTO's dispute resolution to address these concerns.

China is standing firm on its anti-dumping meaasures regarding European Union-imported brandies, describing them as legitimate trade remedies. This stance was emphasized by China's commerce ministry on Wednesday.

The ministry countered with accusations against the EU, stating their actions against Chinese electric vehicles are unfounded and breach World Trade Organization (WTO) regulations.

In response, China has made strong representations at the WTO, engaging its dispute settlement system to challenge the EU's actions.
