Brussels wants tariffs and quotations on Chinese products. Beijing said it was breaking WTO rules. After a meeting of trade ministers in Dublin, EU trade chief Maros Sifouk said the bloc would consider broad-based safeguards to move quickly against Chinese imports. The commission is also planning three new trade tools by Christmas, including a "kill switch" to cut Chinese companies out of the EU market. China's Ministry of Commerce: Restricting normal trade "will hurt EU inflation" and hurt Europe's industries. This, weeks after Beijing, agreed to freeze hybrid car exports to the EU, with growth of 6% a year for four years. Europe has reasonable Chinese technology on one side and American pressure on the other. He chooses Washington and pays more for everything. He wonders why his industry is dying.
