澳大利亚国防部长称，澳方未采取措施禁止中国电动汽车进入基地。菲律宾宿务，10月28日：澳大利亚尚未采取任何行动限制中国电动汽车进入其军事基地，国防部长理查德·马尔斯周三表示，尽管美国军方宣布禁止比亚迪汽车进入日本的一个空军基地。
Australia has not taken steps to ban Chinese EVs at bases, defence minister says CEBU, Philippines, Oct 28 : Australia has not made any move to restrict Chinese electric vehicles at its military bases, Defence Minister Richard Marles said on Wednesday, even though the United States military announced a ban on BYD cars at an air base in Japan. • The US military said last week that BYD vehicles presented an "unacceptable" and "unmitigable" risk as the ban was implemented at the Kadena Air Base on Japan's Okinawa island.
- 美国军方上周表示，在位于日本冲绳岛的嘉手纳空军基地实施禁令时，比亚迪汽车构成了“不可接受”且“无法缓解”的风险。
• "We obviously continue to monitor all the safety around our bases in every respect, but we haven't taken that step," Marles said in an interview.
- 马尔斯在接受采访时表示：“我们显然会继续全面监测基地周围的所有安全状况，但尚未采取这一步骤。”
• There was also no request from the United States for Australia to take a similar step, Marles added.
- 马尔斯补充说，美国也没有要求澳大利亚采取类似措施。
• Australia is one of BYD's largest export markets, along with Brazil and Britain, aided by relatively low trade barriers.
