BRUSSELS (Reuters) – European Union governments have given a mixed view in a non-binding vote on tariffs for imports of China-built electric vehicles (EVs), sources with knowledge of the vote said on Tuesday.
The European Commission, which oversees the bloc’s trade policy, has set provisional duties of up to 37.6% on EVs imported from China and has canvassed EU member views in a so-called advisory vote.
A dozen EU members voted in support of the tariffs, four voted against and 11 abstained, the sources said.
