On December 11, the Ministry of Commerce held a regular press conference. Press spokesman He Yadong said that China and Europe have just held trade remedy talks this week and will continue discussions next week. China welcomes the European side once again restarting price commitment negotiations, and appreciates the European side's return to the path of resolving differences through dialogue. He said, “What I want to emphasize is that the China Mechatronics Chamber of Commerce has been commissioned by various types of Chinese companies to propose solutions representing the overall position of the industry. China and Europe have held many rounds of discussions on this issue, and certain results have been achieved. If the European side were to have separate negotiations with individual enterprises at the same time as negotiations with China, it would not be conducive to maintaining mutual trust between the two sides, nor to promoting overall efficiency. We hope that the European side will effectively implement the important consensus reached at the Sino-European leaders' meeting, strictly abide by the principle of non-discrimination, and properly resolve the friction as soon as possible through dialogue and consultation on the basis of earlier efforts, so as to create an open and stable market environment for the development of the Chinese and European industries.
