EU China Chamber of Commerce Expresses Serious Concern and Firm Opposition to the EU's Frequent Use of FSR Investigations on Chinese Enterprises

Statement by the EU-China Chamber of Commerce on the European Commission’s Initiation of an In-Depth FSR Investigation into a Chinese Wind Power Company. The EU-China Chamber of Commerce notes that the European Commission has decided to initiate an in-depth investigation under the Foreign Subsidies Regulation (FSR) into a Chinese wind power enterprise. The EU-China Chamber of Commerce expresses serious concern and firm opposition to the frequent use of FSR investigations against Chinese companies by the EU. Since the implementation of the FSR, Chinese companies have become primary targets, and the EU’s frequent investigations have disrupted the normal business activities of our enterprises, creating uncertainties for their development in the EU market. As a result, Chinese companies have suffered direct and indirect losses amounting to billions of euros. The Chamber believes that Chinese companies continue to play a key role in supporting the EU’s green and digital transformation. We call on the EU to exercise restraint, implement relevant laws fairly and transparently, and ensure a level playing field through constructive dialogue to promote innovation, investment, and sustainable growth, thereby providing a fair, just, and non-discriminatory business environment for Chinese companies operating in the EU.
