Fierce competition continues in every field of technology. At this point, the conflict between countries has begun to increase in intensity. The tension between China and the USA and Europe continues to find its place in every branch of technology.
European Commission will launch an investigation into Chinese car manufacturers
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen recently announced that she wants to launch an investigation against Chinese automobile manufacturers. The commission pressed the button for the investigation today. The investigation will be based on subsidy. It is stated that this situation may, at best, cause high taxes in Europe for Chinese automakers.
The automobile industry has begun to rapidly transition to the electric vehicle world in recent years. Chinese manufacturers have been quite successful in this area so far. Allegedly, this decision taken by the European Commission was taken to stop the rapid rise.
The tension with China is heading towards a technological war. So much so that it is not the only problem experienced in the electric car world. In the ongoing tension over social media platforms, the USA has declared a fierce war against TikTok. The platform was banned by official institutions in many parts of the USA and Europe due to data leaks.
This tension continues to rise in the smartphone industry. As it is known, the USA started an embargo on Huawei company 3 years ago. Recently, Germany took action in line with the US policy. According to the report, the German government thinks that companies such as Huawei and ZTE pose a problem in terms of cyber security and wants to ban them for up to 5 years.
