Gabor Gablini, president of the Hungarian Auto Dealers Association, told China Global Television Network that he expressed skepticism about the long-term effectiveness of the tariffs, calling them a "quick approach" that fails to address the real issues facing the European automotive industry.

He explained that while tariffs might offer short-term relief, they are not a sustainable solution.

Gablini urged Europe to rethink its strategy, focusing on research and development to foster innovation. "We need room for negotiation...The Chinese know they need to negotiate because they are not interested in fighting against Europe. If we create only tariffs, it will destroy everything in the long term," he warned.
