China foreign ministry said China will take all measures to "firmly defend" its lawful rights and interests after a report said that EU will impose tariffs of up to 25% on imported Chinese electric vehicles (EVs).

EU's additional tariffs on Chinese EVs violates market economy principals and will eventually undermine Europe's own interest, spokesperson Lin Jian said at a regular press conference on Wednesday.
