Hey there, global news enthusiasts! 🌍
Looks like China's throwing open its doors for some intellectual property chats with the European Union! 📚💡 The Chinese Ministry of Commerce announced on Monday that they’re totally up for talks with the EU on this hot topic.
So, what's the buzz? 🐝 The EU filed a complaint at the World Trade Organization (WTO) against China's judicial rulings on standard essential patent disputes. But China’s like, \"No worries, our communication lines are always open!\" 📞✨
Actually, China already got a consultation request from the EU back on January 20, according to an online statement from the Ministry of Commerce. They were responding to some media questions about the whole situation.
The Ministry emphasized that China has been playing by the WTO rules 📜 and keeping to its commitments since joining. They've been boosting their laws and enforcement around protecting intellectual property rights, and they say their efforts are getting lots of thumbs up globally! 👍🌐
China also mentioned that they'll handle the next steps according to WTO rules and are set on protecting their legit rights and interests. 💪🇨🇳
Stay tuned to see how this international convo unfolds! 🧐👀
