China's Commerce Ministry announced on Wednesday that it will extend its anti-dumping investigation into brandy imports from the European Union by three months, citing the complexity of the case. The probe, now set to conclude by July 5, 2025, was initially launched in January 2024 amid growing trade scrutiny.
This marks the second extension of the high-profile investigation, which had already been prolonged to April 2025. Analysts suggest the move reflects Beijing's methodical approach to trade disputes, with potential implications for EU-China economic ties as both sides navigate shifting global markets.
