The president of the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China, Joerg Wuttke, said any large-scale boycott would likely hurt Chinese workers and companies and could be met by similar action against Chinese products in Europe.

"This kind of thing is a slippery slope downhill. Once you start talking about boycotts, there will always be retaliation on the other side. Where do you stop?" Mr. Wuttke told reporters in Beijing.

Barf. That’s my comment.
