The European Commission's trade chief has outlined plans to rebalance EU-China trade ties ahead of fresh talks with Beijing, as Brussels weighs wider import restrictions and new trade-defence tools in additional sectors.
欧盟委员会贸易主管概述了重塑欧盟与中国贸易关系的计划，此前双方将与北京进行新一轮谈判。官员表示，布鲁塞尔正在考虑在电动汽车和钢铁之外的更多领域实施更广泛的进口限制，同时推出旨在应对低价中国商品进入欧洲市场的新贸易防御工具。
The European Commission's trade chief has outlined plans to rebalance the European Union's trade relationship with China ahead of a fresh round of negotiations with Beijing. Officials say Brussels is weighing wider import restrictions on additional sectors beyond electric vehicles and steel, alongside new trade-defence tools meant to counter underpriced Chinese goods entering European markets.
此举是在多年欧盟对中国产能过剩的抱怨之后提出的，官员认为这种过剩导致太阳能电池板、电池和重型机械价格下降，损害了欧洲制造商的利益。北京否认了这一指控，并表示可能对欧洲出口商采取报复措施，就像此前在电动汽车关税争端中所做的那样。
The push follows years of EU complaints about Chinese industrial overcapacity, which officials argue has driven down prices for solar panels, batteries and heavy machinery at the expense of European manufacturers. Beijing has denied the accusation and has signalled it could respond with retaliatory measures against European exporters, as it did during an earlier dispute over electric-vehicle tariffs.
欧盟谈判代表正在为未来几周与中方对手方的新一轮谈判做准备。委员会对优先领域的审查预计将在任何正式贸易防御措施提交成员国批准之前完成。
EU negotiators are preparing a new round of talks with their Chinese counterparts in the coming weeks. The Commission's review of priority sectors is expected to be completed before any formal trade-defence measures are put to member states for approval.
