China's foreign ministry on Monday called on the European Union not to hurt enterprises' confidence in investing there following an FT report of a move to phase out Chinese suppliers from key EU infrastructure. In a statement to Reuters regarding the report, the ministry called restricting Chinese firms without legal basis "naked protectionism" and urged the EU to provide a fair, transparent and non-discriminatory business environment for Chinese companies.
