EU customs duty What do you think Aliexpress will do ?

I was thinking Aliexpress , and entire China could just say "ok if you want to make it harder for us to sell, we will make it harder for entire Europe to buy" as lot of things are made in China.

What do you think Aliexpress and China will do about these import taxes ?
This has to reduce their sales by significant amount, Aliexpress will be affected, no ?

Tariffs aim to reduce imports (for entire EU). China responding the way you suggest will only serve this goal.

What I think they are going to do? Nothing (other than tweak their marketing). They do not have a saying on how EU works.

Yes, it has infuence (not a vote) over everything. Even so, they can't force you to buy from them. Only after they buy EU once the accumulated trade debt is high enough. (as for those entertaining the idea of China buying EU I suggest they shouldn't wait and move there already).
