Chinese officials called on the U.S. Saturday to reconsider its proposed rule seeking to further restrict American investments into its tech industry, saying the move would disrupt trade relations between the two countries.
周四,美国财政部提出一项规则,扩大现有的《对外投资安全计划》(OISP)限制范围,涵盖高超音速系统、量子信息技术、高性能计算、超级计算和人工智能。该拟议强制令旨在防止少数外国对手——中国、俄罗斯和朝鲜——利用美国资金增强自身技术实力。
On Thursday, the Treasury Department proposed a rule expanding existing restrictions in the Outbound Investment Security Program (OISP) on hypersonic systems, quantum information technologies, high-performance computing, supercomputing and AI. The proposed mandate seeks to prevent a handful of foreign adversaries — China, Russia and North Korea — from using money from the U.S. to bolster its own technological advancement.
北京商务部在一份发表于官方媒体《环球时报》的声明中坚决反对该提案,发言人称该规则“具有歧视性”地扩大了针对中国的投资限制。
Beijing’s commerce ministry firmly opposed the proposal in a statement published in the Chinese Global Times, a state run media outlet, in which a spokesperson said the rule “discriminatorily” widened China-related investment restrictions.
发言人表示:“这是泛化国家安全概念的典型案例。中国将密切关注后续事态发展,并保留采取相应措施的权利。”
“This is a typical case of overstretching the concept of national security. China will closely monitor subsequent developments and reserves the right to take corresponding measures,” the spokesperson said.
商务部还表示,该提案将损害两国经济关系,并保留采取未具体说明的反制措施的权利。
The ministry also said the proposal would damage economic ties between the two countries, and it reserved the right to take unspecified countermeasures.
根据财政部周四发布的新闻稿,新规还将生物技术行业纳入拟在OISP框架下重点监管的行业名单,这是财政部长斯科特·贝森特呼吁增加的。
The new rule also adds the biotechnology industry to the list of sectors it plans to target under OISP, an addition Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called for, according to a Thursday press release from the department.
贝森特表示:“拟议法规将强化现有的《对外投资安全计划》,防止我们的对手利用美国投资开发威胁美国国家安全的关键技术。”该提案将在财政部发布最终规则前经历公众意见征询期。
“The proposed regulations would strengthen the existing Outbound Investment Security Program to prevent our adversaries from using U.S. investment to develop critical technologies that threaten U.S. national security,” Bessent said. The proposal will go through a public comment period before the Treasury issues a final rule.
本周早些时候,美国国务院宣布对五家与前谷歌工程师林伟鼎(Linwei Ding)有关联的中国公司实施制裁,林伟鼎今年早些时候因窃取与人工智能相关的商业机密而被判有罪。中国反对这些制裁,称该惩罚“严重损害了中国企业的合法权益”。
Earlier this week, the State Department announced sanctions against five Chinese companies connected to a former Google engineer, Linwei Ding, who was convicted earlier this year of stealing AI-related trade secrets. China opposed the sanctions, saying the punishment “severely harms the legitimate rights and interests” of Chinese businesses.
