BEIJING (Reuters) -- China said on Friday it would expand the scope of its anti-subsidy investigation into dairy imports from the European Union to cover additional EU subsidy programs as well as those in Denmark, France, Italy and the Netherlands.

The world's second-largest economy launched the investigation into imports of some cheese, milk and cream from the EU in August, following the bloc's tariff plan for China-made electric vehicles.
