EU and China reach deal in solar panel dispute

[muriel_volestrangler]

The European Commission says it has reached "an amicable solution" with Beijing in a row over imports of Chinese solar panels.

Both sides have agreed a minimum price for the panels, EU Trade Commissioner Karel De Gucht said.

The dispute erupted after the Commission - the EU's executive arm - imposed temporary anti-dumping levies on the imports.

"After weeks of intensive talks, I can announce that I am satisfied with the offer of a price undertaking submitted by China's solar panel exporters," Mr De Gucht said on Saturday.

1. Will the Chinese workers get a raise out of the higher price?

That's mostly what the conflict in price boils down to, isn't it?

Does the EU care? Somehow I don't think they do, based on the wording of that article.
