In an interview with China News Network, Daryl Guppy, former board member of the Australia China Business Council and Australian ACBC delegate at the Silk Road Chamber of International Commerce, said the new tariffs on EV cars and other products from China imposed by the U.S. government and the hyped-up China’s “overcapacity” is part of an overall American strategy to pull China back, to prevent China's development, and to halt its progress.
Guppy further noted that many countries are open to exports from China because of their high quality and reasonable cost. “Unfortunately, what we are seeing in a global basis is an increase in trade protection barriers,” according to Guppy, “it is unfair and unreasonable, because they don't care about overall climate objectives and the fact that Chinese EVs are better.”
