A dispute has arisen over France's new "anti fast-fashion" law. China claims that the law is discriminatory, but this charge has been denied by the foreign ministry.

The denial was reported by an internal source. Details of the dispute and the law itself are limited in this report, but further information may be available from the source.

The foreign ministry's denial suggests that the issue is being contested, but without more details, the nature and implications of the dispute are unclear.
