Global competition creates and protects jobs. But it must be fair.

President von der Leyen unveiled bold steps to ensure fair play, free and safe trade at :

  • We launched an anti-subsidy investigation into electric vehicles from China, whose prices are kept artificially low.

  • From 🇯🇵 to 🇺🇸, we will work with our partners to cut our reliance on single suppliers for critical materials.

  • By year's end, we should finalise trade agreements with 🇦🇺, 🇲🇽 and Mercosur – 🇮🇳 and 🇮🇩 coming next.

@EU_Commission
"Global competition creates and protects jobs". Are you even sure about that ?? 🤨

Agonio,

@EU_Commission prices from China and from developing countries are lower on many products, simply because they pay less for salary. This move instead is a way to allow our technology to grow, something we should have done with the US too.

Let's at least call things by their name.

Let's start limiting trade with entities that don't respect human and worker rights, including anti-union US companies.

dianshuo,

@EU_Commission we call that protectionism. Making electric cars unaffordable is not a good look.

abe4eva,

@EU_Commission god forbid something doesn't cost as much as possible
