BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s anti-monopoly regulator said on Tuesday it had launched an investigation into Alphabet’s Google, minutes after an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump came into effect.
The statement did not offer any further details on the investigation.
Google products such as its search engine are blocked in China, but it works with local partners such as advertisers in the country.
