A spokesperson for China's Ministry of Commerce on Friday expressed strong dissatisfaction with and firm opposition to recent US Section 301 investigations targeting multiple economies, including China.

The Office of the United States Trade Representative launched two probes on March 12 and 13 (Beijing Time), citing so-called "overcapacity" and "failure to effectively prohibit imports of forced labor products," respectively, the spokesperson said.

China is strongly dissatisfied with and firmly opposes the moves, and will take corresponding measures to resolutely safeguard its legitimate rights and interests, the spokesperson noted.
