German deputy leader visits China as EU tariff tensions simmer
BERLIN -Germany's Economy Minister Robert Habeck travels to China this week with a delicate mission to deepen economic ties while helping manage the fallout of the EU's threat to impose steep tariffs on Chinese cars that has raised fears of a trade war.
As Europe's largest economy, Germany's voice carries particular weight and its leading car manufacturers have vociferously opposed the EU tariffs. It has urged dialogue while also expecting China to compromise. "Of course, the Minister will have no choice but to address this issue, that is quite clear," a ministry spokesperson said.The European Commission said it would impose extra duties on Chinese electric cars from July to combat excessive subsidies.
"If the EU has sufficient evidence of unfair subsidies, imposing extra duties is not protectionism, but rather an attempt to establish a level playing field," he told Reuters.
