The European Union says China is blocking imports from European Union countries when they contain components from Lithuania.

A European official says there have been many cases where imports from Lithuania and the EU are blocked in Chinese ports.

"Apparently, Chinese customs refuse to clear goods from other EU countries if they contain parts from Lithuania," said
