Original: Expert warns EU ‘301-style’ tool will backfire and erode sincerity in dialogue with China as France, Germany push new EU trade tool
France and Germany are backing a new EU trade instrument modelled on the US Section 301 tool, aimed at pressuring countries seen as unfair trading partners, including China. An expert cited by Global Times warns the measure will backfire, escalating trade friction and eroding sincerity in EU-China dialogue rather than resolving disputes.
Why now: France and Germany's joint push for the new trade tool has raised concerns about its impact on EU-China trade relations.
