[The EU plans to develop new tools in the economic and trade field, China Chamber of Commerce for Machinery and Electronics issued a statement] September 30th: Recently, the EU and its member states have taken frequent restrictive measures at the legislative and administrative levels. The tendency of trade protectionism is obvious, which has deeply worried China's relevant industries. Restrictive measures in the field of trade and investment will not help fundamentally improve the EU's own industrial competitiveness. Instead, they will undermine mutually beneficial cooperation between enterprises and the stability and smoothness of the production and supply chain, and will also have an adverse impact on the interests of EU industries and consumers. The China Chamber of Commerce for Machinery and Electronics has noted the Chinese Ministry of Commerce’s solemn stance on trade protectionism and its firm determination to safeguard its own economic and trade interests, and expresses its full support for this. China Chamber of Commerce for Machinery and Electronics has always believed that China and the EU should seek effective ways to resolve each other's concerns in the spirit of mutual respect and friendly dialogue. The China Chamber of Commerce for Machinery and Electronics calls on the European side to listen carefully to the voices of the industry, avoid the implementation of negative legislation and policies, resolve differences through intergovernmental consultations and dialogue with the industry, and jointly maintain a fair and predictable bilateral economic and trade environment. The China Chamber of Commerce for Machinery and Electronics will closely follow relevant trends, assist enterprises in the mechanical and electrical industry to properly deal with external risks and challenges, and strive to play an active role in safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese industries and the overall economic and trade situation between China and Europe.
