Italy's Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani has reaffirmed the country's support for the European Commission's proposed tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles (EVs), emphasizing the need to protect the competitiveness of Italian companies. During discussions with China's Commerce Minister Wang Wentao, Tajani highlighted Italy's desire for cooperation with China, while also insisting on equal market access for Italian products. This position aligns with Italy's prior backing of tariff measures in a non-binding EU vote and reflects ongoing tensions between the EU and China over trade practices. Moreover, while Italy seeks to attract Chinese automakers like Dongfeng and Chery Auto to boost local production, it maintains a firm stance on the necessity of reciprocity in trade relations. The EU is expected to finalize the tariffs, which could reach up to 35.3%, unless a majority of member states oppose the measures. Despite the tariff discussions, Tajani stressed that Italy's relations with China remain strong, with upcoming visits planned by Italian leadership to further bilateral cooperation.
