Financial Times: Uniunea Europeană cere Marii Britanii să majoreze taxele vamale impuse maşinilor din China pentru a evita barierele impuse importurilor cheie prin legislaţia „Made in Europe”
The EU has urged the UK to increase tariffs on Chinese cars and align its trade policy with the EU to avoid import barriers. The European Commission is developing "Made in Europe" regulations that will set local content limits for electric vehicles sold in the EU. The UK has been advised that joining the EU customs union could alleviate issues related to these regulations. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham is advocating for the UK to be recognized as a reliable partner under EU regulations. The EU is also seeking commitments from China to manage its trade surplus and address export restrictions on critical materials.
