China’s Minister of Commerce Wang Wentao is touring several European capitals and Brussels to discuss the EU’s additional tariffs on imported Chinese EVs. On Tuesday, he met with German Economy Minister Robert Habeck in Berlin. The central topic was „the issue of fair competitive conditions,“ the Ministry announced afterward. This was „the core of the European Commission’s investigation into EVs manufactured in China,“ said Habeck. „It is important to me to make clear that Germany is not shying away from competition with China. On the contrary, we embrace competition – but it must be on fair terms.“
