Bloc ‘will not waver’ from making tough decisions to protect economy and security, says Ursula von der Leyen
The EU has restated its readiness to launch a trade war with China over imports of cheap electric cars, steel and cheap solar and wind technology, with Ursula von der Leyen saying the bloc will “not waver” from protecting industries and jobs after a meeting with the Chinese president, Xi Jinping, on his multi-day tour of Europe.
The European Commission chief said she was “convinced that if the competition is fair” from China, then Europe “will have thriving durable economies”.
