The European Commission has also ignored the role played by iPhone maker Apple when it laid out the charge in April, Google general counsel Kent Walker wrote on a blog. "To ignore competition with Apple is to miss the defining feature of today's competitive smartphone landscape," he said. (Reporting by Foo Yun Chee; editing by Robert-Jan Bartunek)
