The G7 are demonstrating a united front against China’s attempt to bring products onto global markets at below cost. One day after the EU announced increased tariffs on Chinese EVs, Ursula von der Leyen’s signature is clearly recognizable in a statement by the heads of state and government. In the statement, the G7 accuse China of creating harmful overcapacities and distorting global competition through non-market economy practices such as subsidies, threatening domestic jobs and industries as well as the economic resilience and security of the G7 states.
