China examined Google to break the anti -monopoly law, after fresh American tariff. Mint

China on Tuesday announced that it has initiated an no -confidence investigation in Google to allege the country’s anti -monopoly law. An official notice by Chinese state administration for market regulation confirmed that Android manufacturer was kept under investigation as per law.

Google is already investigating for its monopoly practices in many countries around the world, including its home countries, where it lost a historical case last year. However, the time of China’s announcement of new action against Google is suspicious, given that the trump administration’s US goods were investigated shortly after a 10 percent tariff.

While the Google Search and other internet services of the tech giants have been unavailable in China since 2010, the company still maintains an appearance in the Asian country, mainly through its advertising business, Bloomberg.

In addition to Google, China has also taken action against the American fashion group PVH Corp (owner of Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein), adding it to its list of “incredible institutions”.

Beijing reacts to us to tariffs:

In addition to action against Google and other American companies, China also disclosed plans to install 10% tariffs such as high-performance automobiles such as high-performance automobiles such as crude oil, agricultural appliances, pickup trucks and large engines sports cars such Is.

“The US unilateral tariff growth seriously violates the rules of the World Trade Organization,” the Chinese Ministry of Commerce said in a statement.

“This is not only unexpected in solving its problems, but also harms general economic and trade cooperation between China and the US,” the statement said.

Google’s regulator troubles at home:

In August last year, Google lost a case against the US Department of Justice, in which the court found the company guilty of violating opposing laws by maintaining a monopoly control over the search and advertising markets.

The ruling said, “After considering and weighing the witness’s testimony and evidence, the court reaches the following conclusion: Google is an monopolist, and it has worked as one to maintain its monopoly,” The ruling said.
