China Opens New EU Anti-Dumping Probe Ahead of Trade Talks
Original: China Opens New EU Anti-Dumping Probe Days Before Šefčovič Trade Talks in Beijing
China has launched a new anti-dumping investigation targeting the European Union, announced just days before EU trade commissioner Maroš Šefčovič is due in Beijing for trade talks. The timing is being read as a signal of leverage, with Beijing applying commercial pressure moments before negotiations. The move adds to a growing file of trade disputes between China and the EU, covering tariffs, market access and subsidies, and is likely to complicate the agenda of the upcoming meetings.
Why now: The probe lands days before high-level EU-China trade negotiations, making its timing the story.
