Fusion42 · 11 August 2026 · Fusion42 review

A Chinese scholar refutes Western claims that state subsidies caused China’s industrial overcapacity, arguing that reasonable subsidies support market failures and emerging industries while discriminatory subsidies violating WTO rules pose the real issue.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Industrial.
