European countries opposed to online platforms Temu and Shein: what are they accused of.
European community concerned about the activities of Temu and Shein platforms
Six EU member states, including Germany, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Denmark, and Poland, demand stricter regulation of popular trading platforms Temu and Shein. They have approached the European Commission due to concerns about the quality and safety of goods supplied through these platforms from countries outside the EU. This poses a threat to consumer rights and creates unequal competitive conditions for companies that comply with EU legislation.
Temu and Shein have been classified as "very large online platforms" and are required to comply with the provisions of the Digital Services Act. The European community insists on strict enforcement of these rules and the collection of data on potential violations. Additionally, these platforms are accused of selling counterfeit and uncertified goods, which threatens consumer rights and fair competition in the European market. The European Commission plans to review these concerns and take appropriate actions to ensure compliance with EU standards by all participants in the online trading market.
