纽约——美国联邦法官于10月26日批准了阿里巴巴集团控股有限公司的请求，发布初步禁令，命令美国政府不得因公司、其母公司或子公司与从事为电商巨头游说活动的企业有业务往来，而拒绝向这些公司授予五角大楼合同。
NEW YORK – A US federal judge on Oct 26 granted Alibaba Group Holding’s request for a preliminary injunction, ordering the US government not to deny Pentagon contracts to companies because they, their parent companies or subsidiaries do business with firms that engage in lobbying activities for the e-commerce giant.
阿里巴巴于6月起诉美国政府，此前五角大楼将其列入一份据称协助中国军队的公司名单，名单上还包括互联网搜索服务商百度、电动汽车制造商比亚迪以及其他中国主要制造和科技企业。
Alibaba sued the US government in June after the Pentagon added it to a list of companies allegedly aiding China’s military, alongside internet search provider Baidu, electric vehicle maker BYD and other major Chinese manufacturing and technology firms.
10月26日的裁决意味着阿里巴巴将能够聘用同时也代表五角大楼承包商的美国游说人士，消除了该公司质疑其被指定为中国军工企业这一潜在障碍。
The ruling on Oct 26 means Alibaba will be able to retain US lobbyists who also represent Pentagon contractors, removing a potential obstacle to the company’s efforts to challenge its designation as a Chinese military company.
该指定并不施加正式制裁，但限制五角大楼与上榜公司签订合同，并从2027年起限制通过第三方采购其产品或服务。
The designation does not impose formal sanctions, but restricts Pentagon contracts with listed companies and, from 2027, purchases of their products or services through third parties.
阿里巴巴否认与军方有任何关联，称其产品和服务面向零售、物流和企业技术，而非国防或情报领域。
Alibaba has denied any military ties, saying its products and services are built for retail, logistics and enterprise technology, rather than defence or intelligence.
阿里巴巴在6月的诉讼中表示：“这些认定在事实上和法律上均无依据”，并寻求将其从名单中移除。
“The determinations have no basis in fact or law,” Alibaba said in its lawsuit in June, seeking its removal from the list.
10月26日的禁令并未将阿里巴巴从五角大楼名单中移除，该公司正继续在法庭上提出质疑。阿里巴巴未立即就禁令置评请求作出回应。
The injunction on Oct 26 does not remove Alibaba from the Pentagon list, which the company is continuing to challenge in court. Alibaba did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the injunction.
