Uniunea Europeană cere Marii Britanii să majoreze taxele vamale impuse maşinilor din China (FT) - Economica.net

The European Commission has urged the UK to increase tariffs on Chinese cars and align more closely with EU trade policies to avoid barriers from the "Made in Europe" legislation. Plans for these regulations are underway and may be implemented next year. The EU suggested that joining the customs union could alleviate many trade issues. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham aims for the UK to be seen as a reliable partner under EU regulations, warning that exclusion could harm the UK auto industry. The EU is also seeking commitments from China to manage its trade surplus and address export restrictions on critical materials.
