The European Commission now has the authority to impose tariffs on Chinese auto imports, citing unfair state aid to manufacturers. This could escalate trade tensions.
The tariffs, which can go up to 35.3%, received mixed support in the EU, with a few key countries like Germany opposing the move to avoid a trade war.
The split among EU member states shows the complexity of the situation, particularly with countries like France pushing for tariffs, while Germany advocates for negotiations.
With the European Commission leading trade policy, it emphasized it's received sufficient backing for these tariffs to be enacted, demonstrating the bloc's shifting stance on trade.
