China has condemned Mexico\u2019s recent anti-dumping investigations targeting Chinese imports and has vowed to \u201ctake all necessary measures\u201d to protect the legitimate interests of Chinese companies.<\/p>\n
\u201cChina firmly opposes protectionist actions that undermine China\u2019s legitimate rights and interests. We will closely follow the progress of Mexico\u2019s investigations and urge Mexico to strictly abide by WTO rules in the process, so as to safeguard the lawful rights and interests of Chinese companies,\u201d China\u2019s Ministry of Commerce said in a statement on Friday.<\/p>\n
Beijing noted that Mexico had launched 11 anti-dumping probes into Chinese imports this year \u2013 almost twice the amount of similar investigations compared with last year \u2013 and the statement added that China had been restrained in its responses.<\/p>\n
The remarks followed Mexico\u2019s anti-dumping probes into Chinese goods, including float glass and PVC-coated fabric, which came amid quickly escalating trade tensions between Beijing and Mexico City.<\/p>\n
The Chinese government also reiterated its criticism of the United States for coercing Mexico into taking a tougher trade stance against China.<\/p>\n
\u201cChina believes that, in the current context of the US\u2019 arbitrarily imposing tariffs, all countries should jointly oppose unilateralism, should not allow protectionism to spread, and certainly should not impose restrictions on China under various pretexts at the coercion of others,\u201d the statement said, urging Mexico to oppose unilateralism and protectionism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"China has condemned Mexico\u2019s recent anti-dumping investigations targeting Chinese imports and has vowed to \u201ctake all necessary measures\u201d…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":475090,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5311],"tags":[3801,1395,157795,28901,26315,6203,2132,72209,157793,1757,49,978,157794,659,2151],"class_list":{"0":"post-475089","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-united-states","8":"tag-beijing","9":"tag-china","10":"tag-chinas-ministry-of-commerce","11":"tag-chinese-companies","12":"tag-chinese-government","13":"tag-chinese-imports","14":"tag-mexico","15":"tag-mexico-city","16":"tag-pvc-coated-fabric","17":"tag-trump","18":"tag-united-states","19":"tag-us","20":"tag-us-mexico-canada-free-trade-agreement","21":"tag-usa","22":"tag-wto"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115319695517373322","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/475089","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=475089"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/475089\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/475090"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=475089"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=475089"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=475089"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
