BEIJING - China opposes the European Union's "mandatory and unilateral" carbon emission tax on airlines which Chinese experts called "a green barrier".
Europe's highest court upheld on Wednesday the right of the EU to impose a carbon cap-and-trade scheme on international airlines using European airports.
Many countries have come out against the EU move.
