Stockholm: The leaders of Germany and Sweden expressed reservations Tuesday about possible European tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles after Washington announced huge duties on Chinese EVs.
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz were asked at a press conference in Stockholm whether they support the EU following the United States in slapping tariffs on Chinese electric cars.
“As far as tariffs are concerned, we are in agreement that it is a bad idea… to dismantle global trade,” Kristersson told reporters on the second day of Scholz’s visit to Sweden.
