Thousands of European steel industry workers and officials marched today to the European Commission in Brussels against possible recognition of China’s Market Economy Status (MES). Also demands fair trading practices and solutions to handle the loss of thousands of jobs due to manufactures from China. The aim of the protest is to raise awareness among leaders of the European Union and the European Parliament to deny recognition of MES to China, since it is not an economy operating under market conditions and could negatively affect the trade, industry and regional employment.
