Why it matters
The measures are aimed at checking the influx of cheap goods that are hurting industrial growth and employment in western countries. China is reportedly flooding the global market with subsidized, high-tech goods to cushion its domestic economic downturn.
Surging Chinese exports are affecting the European economy, while the US is shifting markets through tariffs on Chinese goods.
