On the afternoon of May 23, the Ministry of Commerce held a regular press conference.A reporter asked, it is reported that China is considering imposing tariffs on imported vehicles with large displacement or more than 2.5 liters to retaliate against European and American countries' restrictions on China's automobile exports. Can you confirm whether this is true?Is China considering raising tariff rates?
He Yadong, spokesman of the Ministry of Commerce, said that we have taken note of the relevant reports.China firmly follows the path of green and low-carbon development, and has always encouraged and supported the transformation and upgrading of various industries in the direction of green and low-carbon to achieve high-quality development. Experts in various fields, including the automobile industry, are also carrying out research in this regard to provide advice and suggestions for coping with global climate change.
What I want to emphasize is that some countries and regions have introduced some restrictive measures in the field of new energy vehicles, which deviate from the concept of green development and violate the principles of market economy and WTO rules. We believe that these measures will only harm the interests of domestic consumers and affect the global green transformation and efforts to deal with climate change.
