EU governments waver over Chinese EV tariffs as trade spat escalates

Germany, whose carmakers made a third of their sales last year in China, wants to stop the tariffs, according to a government source, while France has been among the firmest backers.But a majority of countries are still weighing the pros and cons of the escalating trade spat, according to an informal poll by Reuters of EU governments.

EU members will also vote in October if the Commission proposes multi-year tariffs at the end of its investigation. These would be blocked if a “qualified majority” if at least 15 countries representing 65% of the EU population votes against them.France, Italy and Spain, with 40% of the EU population, have indicated they would back tariffs.

Tariffs could also give the EU leverage in negotiations with Beijing and push producers to make cars in the EU.
