China Opens New Anti-Dumping Probe Before EU 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 into European products just days before EU trade commissioner Maroš Šefčovič is due in Beijing for trade talks. The move is widely read as a pressure tactic ahead of the negotiations, adding friction to already strained EU-China trade relations and giving Beijing leverage at the negotiating table.
Why now: The timing of the probe immediately before high-level EU-China trade talks makes it a pointed act of leverage that is drawing attention.
