No political party in the German Parliament supports Brussels' decision to levy punitive tariffs against China's exports of solar panels, a German politician said.

Hans-Josef Fell, a senior member of the Bundestag, the German Parliament, admitted Germany and the European Commission hold conflicting positions on the issue.

Speaking before Premier Li Keqiang's visit to Germany, which begins Saturday, Fell said penalty tariffs would push up the prices of solar modules, which will negatively affect the solar market and benefit neither side.
