China voices strong dissatisfaction over EU fine on AliExpress

China's Ministry of Commerce on Wednesday voiced strong dissatisfaction and grave concern over the European Commission's decision to fine AliExpress 550 million euros under the EU's Digital Services Act.

A Ministry of Commerce spokesperson said China firmly opposes the EU's moves to set up digital barriers under the guise of platform regulation and adopt discriminatory measures to restrict the normal operations of Chinese e-commerce companies in Europe.

The spokesperson urged the EU to stop abusing its discretionary power through legal ambiguities and treat Chinese companies in a fair and just manner.

China will firmly support Chinese companies in safeguarding their rights via legal means and will take solid steps to protect their legitimate interests, the spokesperson added.
