针对欧盟乳制品补贴政策，商务部依法调查并采取措施

Core Viewpoint - The Chinese Ministry of Commerce has announced a preliminary ruling on anti-subsidy investigations against dairy products imported from the EU, determining a subsidy rate of 21.9%-42.7% and implementing temporary anti-subsidy measures, marking a response to EU subsidy policies and domestic industry demands [2][5]. Group 1: Investigation Process and Findings - The investigation was conducted in accordance with Chinese laws and WTO rules, ensuring fairness and transparency throughout the process, including consultations and hearings with stakeholders [3][4]. - Preliminary evidence indicates that EU dairy products are subsidized, causing substantial harm to the domestic industry in China, with a causal relationship established between the subsidies and the damage [5][6]. Group 2: Impact of EU Subsidies - The EU provides numerous subsidies through its Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), which allows European dairy producers to maintain profitability even during low international milk prices, enabling them to export at prices below cost to China [5][6]. - The investigation specifically targets cheese and high-fat cream, which are critical areas for the transformation and value enhancement of China's dairy industry, indicating that EU products not only result in sales losses but also hinder the progress of local dairy products towards higher-end processing [5][6]. Group 3: China's Stance on Trade Measures - The Chinese Ministry of Commerce has emphasized its cautious and restrained approach to trade remedy measures, having initiated only a few investigations against the EU since 2025, while the EU has launched numerous investigations against Chinese products [7][8]. - The Ministry has expressed a willingness to resolve trade disputes through dialogue, contrasting its restrained actions with the EU's aggressive use of trade remedy tools, which are perceived as discriminatory against Chinese enterprises [8][9].
