China strongly opposes Canada's tightening restrictions on steel imports: China's Ministry of Commerce

BEIJING, July 18 (Xinhua) — China expresses strong dissatisfaction and resolute opposition to the Canadian government's recent decision to tighten restrictions on steel imports, a spokesman for China's Ministry of Commerce said Friday.

The official representative made a corresponding statement in response to a media inquiry on this issue.

Finance Canada recently announced that, effective August 1, in response to U.S. steel tariffs and given the global steel glut, it will expand steel import quotas, tighten existing quota restrictions, and impose additional duties on above-quota imports. In addition, Canada will impose an additional 25 percent duty on imports of steel products smelted and cast in China from all countries except the United States.

Commenting on the measures, a spokesman for China's Ministry of Commerce said they violate World Trade Organization rules, destabilize the international trade order and harm China's interests, representing a typical manifestation of unilateralism and protectionism.

The official noted that the real reason for the difficulties in Canada's steel industry is the unilateral tariff measures of the United States. However, Canadian authorities ignore the main contradiction and try to shift the damage to the industry to other trading partners, including China, he added.

According to the official representative, the Canadian side's actions are logically unfounded, legally illegal and practically useless. They will seriously damage normal trade and economic cooperation between China and Canada, he warned.

The Chinese side calls on Canada, in the spirit of safeguarding the multilateral trading system and maintaining the overall context of China-Canada economic and trade relations, to promptly correct its wrong actions and lift the restrictive measures. China will take all necessary measures to resolutely protect the legitimate rights and interests of its enterprises, the spokesperson added. –0–
