雙語新聞：美國用301條款遏制中國產業(yè)發(fā)展
The Joe Biden administration imposed punitive tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles, solar photovoltaic panels, EV batteries, steel, aluminum and medical equipment on Tuesday. Following a four-year review under Section 301 of the US Trade Act of 1974, the tariff on EVs imported from China will be raised from 27.5 percent to 102.5 percent.
拜登政府周二對中國制造的電動汽車、太陽能光伏板、電動汽車電池、鋼鐵、鋁和醫(yī)療設備加征懲罰性關稅。根據(jù)美國1974年貿易法案第301條款進行四年審查后，從中國進口的電動汽車關稅將從27.5%提高到102.5%。

The US administration is supposed to use Section 301 to take "corrective" action against trade practices it deems unfair or those that violate international trade rules.
美國行政當局本應利用第301條款對其認為不公平或違反國際貿易規(guī)則的貿易做法采取“糾正”行動。

But now the United States is using Section 301 as a weapon to check the development of China's industries. In fact, China needs to prepare for another round of investigations under Section 301 targeting its maritime trade, and logistics and shipbuilding sectors, which were initiated in April in response to a petition filed by five leading US national labor unions on March 12.
但現(xiàn)在，美國正在將第301條款用作遏制中國產業(yè)發(fā)展的武器。事實上，中國需要為另一輪針對其海運貿易、物流和造船業(yè)的第301條款調查做準備，這些調查始于4月，是對美國五大主要國家勞工聯(lián)盟于3月12日提交的請愿書的回應。
Claiming the US' subsidy policies discriminate against foreign automakers, undermine global efforts to adopt EVs and distort fair competition, China filed a formal complaint against the US Inflation Reduction Act in March.
中國聲稱美國的補貼政策歧視外國汽車制造商，破壞全球采用電動汽車的努力，并扭曲公平競爭，于3月向美國《通脹削減法案》提出正式投訴。
Hopefully, the US will adopt the right approach to the issue, and the USTR will drop Section 301 investigation, and move the WTO's dispute settlement mechanism to look into the Chinese shipbuilding issue. And since the WTO mechanism allows the disputing sides to enter into consultation, China and the US should amicably settle the issue.
希望美國能采取正確的態(tài)度對待這個問題，美國貿易代表辦公室將放棄第301條款調查，將中國造船問題提交給世貿組織的爭端解決機制。既然世貿組織機制允許爭端各方進行磋商，中國和美國應該友好地解決這個問題。
