France24 kanavalla itketään, että kuinka protektionistista politiikkaa Trump tekee. Tolvanat ottivat esimerkkinä rangaistustullit aurinkopaneeleille. Ihan hirveetä, miten se kehtaa ja nyt se tuhoaa uusiutuvan jne jne...
Francen toimittelijat kuitenkin tahallaan unohtavat, että EU:lla on ollut jo pitkään rangaistustullit kiinalaisille paneeleille. Pyhimys (ja kokaiinin salakuljetusbisneksiä edistänyt) Obamakin aikoinaan määräsi rangaistustullit. VMP
Umpimähkään etsitty teksti, mutta hyvin mahdollisesti edes oikean suuntainen:
The tariffs were the EU’s response to China selling solar panels at less than it costs to manufacture them, in a process known as “dumping”, and undercutting their EU rivals. Currently the tariffs are provisional and are set at 11.8%. This is not the first time that tariffs have levied against China for dumping solar panels. Last year the Obama administration imposed tariffs up to 4.73% on Chinese manufactured solar panels.
The US tariffs are less aggressive compared to the provisional tariffs put in place by the EU. The addition of the provisional tariff means that China’s panels are no longer the cheapest in the European market and are more expensive compared to panels from Taiwan and Republic of Korea.
The announcement of tariffs has sparked a tit-for-tat response from China, who has opened inquires on red wine and high-end automobile imports. The resolution reached at the end of July prevented tariffs jumping up to a range of 37.2% to 67.9% on August 6th.
En taida edes yrittää pidätellä hengitystä sen suhteen, että EU:a alettaisiin haukkua protektionismista. Ei saa sanoa.
