知情人士透露，德国将敦促欧盟迅速对来自中国的更多商品领域实施配额限制，效仿该集团计划对混合动力汽车实施的限制。
Germany will press the European Union to quickly place quotas on additional sectors of goods being imported from China, replicating a cap the bloc is planning to impose on hybrid vehicles.
知情人士称，德国将寻求欧盟采取保障措施，限制包括化工、机械工程以及潜在的医药等更多领域的商品进口。如果某一个领域的进口量激增，保障措施将允许欧盟对该产品进行限制。
Germany will seek EU safeguard measures to limit the import of goods from additional sectors, including chemicals, mechanical engineering and potentially pharmaceuticals, according to people familiar with the matter. Safeguard measures allow the EU to restrict products from a sector if there’s been a surge of imports.
这些匿名知情人士表示，德国政府将施压负责该集团贸易事务的欧盟委员会在年底前提出建议。记者向德国总理府发送的置评请求未立即得到回应。
The German government will press the European Commission, which handles trade matters for the bloc, to come up with proposals by the end of the year, said the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. A request for comment sent to the German chancellery wasn’t immediately returned.
欧盟领导人周四将在布鲁塞尔会晤，讨论欧盟对华巨额贸易逆差问题，该逆差在9月达到了创纪录的348亿美元。他们将讨论如何阻止中国用低价补贴商品充斥欧洲大陆、侵蚀当地工业——这项努力将需要远远超出针对混合动力车的措施。
EU leaders will meet in Brussels Thursday to discuss the bloc’s massive trade deficit with China, which reached a record $34.8 billion in September. They’ll discuss ways to stop China from flooding the continent with subsidized, low-cost goods that erode local industry — an effort that would need to go far beyond the measures on hybrids.
北京和布鲁塞尔上周的会谈达成了一项涵盖贸易与投资、出口管制以及知识产权的16点协议。欧盟表示，将对进入该集团的中国混合动力汽车数量设定35万辆的上限，这是欧盟本土汽车行业的一场胜利。
Talks between Beijing and Brussels last week resulted in a 16-point agreement spanning trade and investment, export controls and intellectual property rights. The EU said it would institute a cap of 350,000 on the number of Chinese hybrid vehicles that can enter the bloc, a win for the EU’s domestic auto industry.
官员表示，德国政府对该协议表示欢迎，认为这是一个积极的信号和朝正确方向迈出的一步。但柏林方面将混合动力车协议视为解决欧盟对华贸易逆差的第一步。
The German government welcomed the agreement as a positive signal and step into the right direction, according to officials. But Berlin sees the deal on hybrids as a first step in addressing the EU’s trade deficit with China.
欧盟经济事务负责人瓦尔迪斯·东布罗夫斯基斯周二表示，限制中国混合动力汽车进口的协议只是第一步，因为贸易不对称远不止于汽车。
The EU’s economics chief, Valdis Dombrovskis, said on Tuesday that the deal to cap the import of hybrid vehicles from China was only the first step, as trade asymmetry goes far beyond cars.
东布罗夫斯基斯在曼谷接受采访时说：“很明显，这些经济和贸易失衡并不局限于汽车行业。我们需要在其他不同的行业也继续这项工作。”德国总理弗里德里希·默茨和法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙正在推动所有领导人达成政治协议，授权欧盟委员会提出更严格贸易措施的建议。官员称，在峰会期间，默茨和马克龙预计将讨论一揽子旨在支持该集团陷入困境的汽车行业的附加措施。
“It’s clear that those economic and trade imbalances are not limited to automotive,” Dombrovskis said in a interview in Bangkok. “We need to continue this work also across different other sectors.”German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and French President Emmanuel Macron are pushing for a political agreement of all leaders to give the commission the mandate to come up with proposals for stricter trade measures. On the sidelines of the summit, Merz and Macron are expected to discuss a package of additional measures to support the bloc’s ailing car industry, according to officials.
官员称，一项妥协协议的轮廓将是法国在逐步淘汰内燃机汽车方面对德国作出妥协，作为回报，德国将放松其对“购买欧洲货”要求的批评立场。
The outlines of a compromise deal would see France meeting Germany halfway on the phase-out of internal combustion engines, while in return, Germany would relax its critical stance on ‘Buy European’ requirements, according to the officials.
其中一名官员表示，两位领导人本周晚些时候在布鲁塞尔欧盟峰会期间宣布达成协议的“可能性很大”。
There is a “good chance” that both leaders might announce an agreement on the sidelines of the EU summit in Brussels later this week, one of the officials said.
