　　The US department of commerce is preparing totemporarily lift some sanctions on ZTE, the Chinesetelecommunications equipment maker accused ofillicitly supplying US technology to Iran.

　　美國(guó)商務(wù)部準(zhǔn)備暫時(shí)解除對(duì)中國(guó)電信設(shè)備制造商中興通訊(ZTE)的部分制裁，后者被指控非法向伊朗提供美國(guó)的技術(shù)。

　　The sanctions, announced on March 8, in effect banUS companies from supplying one of China’s highest-profile technology companies. After Huawei, ZTE isChina’s second-largest global exporter of telecomsinfrastructure, and the third-largest seller of Android smartphones in the US.

　　美國(guó)3月8日宣布的制裁措施，從實(shí)質(zhì)上禁止美國(guó)企業(yè)向中興供貨。中興是中國(guó)知名科技公司之一，是僅次于華為(Huawei)的中國(guó)第二大電信基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施全球出口商，也是美國(guó)市場(chǎng)上的第三大Android智能手機(jī)銷售商。

　　The ban was imposed after an investigation by the commerce department found earlier thismonth that ZTE “planned and organised a scheme to establish, control and use a series of‘detached’ [or shell] companies to illicitly re-export controlled items to Iran in violation ofUS export control laws” according to a March 8 announcement.

　　3月8日的公告稱，實(shí)施這一禁令是因?yàn)槊绹?guó)商務(wù)部展開(kāi)的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查在本月早些時(shí)候發(fā)現(xiàn)，中興“策劃和組織了一套方案，建立、控制和使用一系列的‘分離’(即空殼)公司非法向伊朗轉(zhuǎn)口受管制物品，違反美國(guó)的出口管制法律”。

　　But following weeks of discussions, the commerce department appears poised to relax themeasures.

　　但在經(jīng)歷了為期數(shù)周的磋商后，美國(guó)商務(wù)部似乎打算放松制裁。

　　According to the text of a document seen by the Financial Times that could be posted to theFederal Register as early as Thursday, the ban could be waived until June 30 as a result ofbinding commitments made by ZTE.

　　英國(guó)《金融時(shí)報(bào)》看到的一份文件的文本顯示，由于中興作出了具有約束性的承諾，這項(xiàng)禁令可能直至6月30日都會(huì)被免于執(zhí)行。這份文件可能最早將于本周四發(fā)布在《聯(lián)邦公報(bào)》(Federal Register)上。

　　According to the document the US Commerce Department would “restore temporarily thestatus quo ante licensing policy pertaining to exports, re-exports, and transfers (in-country) toZTE Corporation and ZTE Kangxun”.

　　根據(jù)這份文件，美國(guó)商務(wù)部將“暫時(shí)恢復(fù)原有的與向中興通訊和中興康訊(ZTE Kangxun)出口、轉(zhuǎn)口和(國(guó)內(nèi))轉(zhuǎn)交有關(guān)的許可證政策”。

　　ZTE Kangxun, a subsidiary, according to the department of commerce, facilitated the supplyof US technology to Iran by buying US technology and providing them to a Chineseintermediary trading company for re-export.

　　美國(guó)商務(wù)部稱，通過(guò)買入美國(guó)技術(shù)并將它們提供給中國(guó)的一家中間貿(mào)易公司用于轉(zhuǎn)口，中興子公司中興康訊幫助向伊朗供應(yīng)了美國(guó)的技術(shù)。

　　Beijing 8-Star and ZTE Parsian, two other entities connected to ZTE that according to thedepartment of commerce were implicated in the re-exporting of US technology to Iran, are notto be taken off the sanctions list, the document said.

　　這份文件顯示，與中興有關(guān)的另兩家實(shí)體——北京八星(Beijing 8-Star)和中興伊朗(ZTE Parsian)——并未被撤下制裁名單。根據(jù)美國(guó)商務(wù)部的說(shuō)法，這兩家實(shí)體也涉及把美國(guó)技術(shù)轉(zhuǎn)口給伊朗。

　　ZTE’s Hong Kong and Shenzhen shares have been suspended since March 7.

　　中興在香港和深圳上市的股票自3月7日起都已停牌。
