EU urged to treat Chinese firms fairly

China has urged the European Union to immediately stop its unreasonable actions against Chinese companies operating within the bloc and use the Foreign Subsidies Regulation investigation tool prudently, said the Ministry of Commerce.

Speaking at a weekly news briefing in Beijing on Thursday, He Yadong, spokesman for the ministry, said China noted that the European Commission — the EU's executive body — has recently launched a series of FSR investigations targeting Chinese businesses.

These measures include in-depth investigations into CRRC Corp and Nuctech, alongside on-site inspections of Chinese digital platforms, said the Ministry of Commerce.
