北京——中国商务部在下周北京预计举行的高级别会谈前夕，向欧盟发出了强烈警告。
BEIJING — China's commerce ministry has sent a strong warning to the European Union ahead of expected high-level talks in Beijing next week.
据CNBC对中文声明的翻译，中国商务部周二晚些时候表示，如果欧盟对中国企业或产品实施限制，中国将“坚决回应”。
China will "respond firmly" if the EU introduces restrictions on Chinese businesses or products, the Chinese commerce ministry said in a statement late Tuesday, according to a CNBC translation of Mandarin.
该部指出，在中欧进行贸易谈判期间采取此类行动将“严重损害互信”并“扰乱”谈判进程。
The ministry said such actions, while China and the EU are engaged in trade talks, would "seriously undermine mutual trust" and "disrupt" the negotiations.
今年夏天，中欧一直在进行贸易谈判，欧洲希望到10月减少其与中国创纪录的贸易逆差。
China and the EU have been engaged in trade talks this summer as Europe wants to reduce its record trade deficit with China by October.
欧盟贸易委员马罗什·谢夫乔维奇本周在接受欧洲新闻台采访时警告称，北京必须在10月前拿出“具体成果”，否则将面临“更严厉的措施”。他预计下周将访问北京。
EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič had warned in an interview with Euronews this week that Beijing must deliver "concrete results" by October or face "harsher measures." He is expected to visit Beijing next week.
本周早些时候，罗地欧集团（Rhodium Group）的诺亚·巴金表示，欧洲正在考虑将中国排除在欧盟市场之外的措施。
Earlier this week, Rhodium Group's Noah Barkin said Europe was considering measures to shut China out of the bloc.
他援引欧洲官员的话称，德国和法国正在敲定一份联合文件，呼吁欧盟委员会加快开发一项工具，一位官员将其描述为允许布鲁塞尔“在24小时内将中国切断与欧洲市场的联系”。巴金表示，这些措施可能模仿美国的301条款关税做法。
Citing European officials, he said Germany and France are finalizing a joint paper that calls on the European Commission to speed up development of a tool that one official described as allowing Brussels "to cut China off from the European market within 24 hours." Barkin said the measures could mirror the U.S. Section 301 tariff approach.
中国商务部声明称，其回应针对的是欧洲考虑采用“301”式工具。
China's commerce ministry statement said it was responding to Europe's consideration of "301"-style tools.
尽管东盟在2020年超越欧盟成为中国最大的货物贸易伙伴，但欧盟对中国的贸易逆差是全球最大的，最近甚至超过了美国。
这是根据通过Wind Information获取的中国海关数据得出的。
While the Association of Southeast Asian Nations surpassed the EU in 2020 to become China's biggest goods trading partner, the EU's trade deficit with China is the largest in the world, recently surpassing the U.S. That's according to China Customs data accessed through Wind Information.
如果包括服务贸易，欧盟表示其是中国最大的贸易伙伴，去年双边贸易总额达8800亿欧元，约合近1万亿美元。
When including services the EU said it was China's top trading partner, with combined trade of 880 billion euros, or nearly $1 trillion, last year.
