美國商務部臨時解除針對中興通訊出口限制措施
The US Department of Commerce (DOC) is expected to announce a lift on the export curbs imposed on ZTE later this week, two weeks after the ban was put into place, media reports said on Monday.
相關媒體上週一報道，美國商務部預計將於本週解除對中興的出口禁令，而兩週之前，美國宣佈對中興進行貿易制裁。Experts said the thaw in the situation is a result of joint efforts by ZTE and the Chinese government to pressure the US side, which could serve as an example for Chinese companies in future trade disputes in a foreign market.
專家表示美國態度的放緩來源於中興集團和中國政府對美國實施的壓力，這件事也爲以後中國企業處理國際貿易爭端樹立了榜樣。"The relief would be temporary in nature and would be maintained only if ZTE is abiding by its commitments to the US government," Reuters reported, citing a senior official at the DOC.
美國商務部一名高級官員表示：“禁令的解除是臨時性的。如果中興遵守對美國政府的承諾，那麼禁令將會永久解除。”
On March 7, the DOC announced export restrictions against ZTE. Manufacturers outside the US would also be prohibited from selling products with a significant amount of US components to ZTE, according to the DOC. Under the ban, US suppliers will need to apply for an export license before shipping anything to ZTE, but the license applications generally would be denied, said the DOC.
美國商務部於3月7日對中興發佈出口禁令。根據美國商務部的要求，美國以外的製造商也被禁止銷售攜有大量美國元器件的產品給中興公司。美國商務部表示，在該禁令下，美國廠商向中興提供設備或元件時需要申請單獨的出口許可證，不過許可證通常都會被拒絕的。In a following statement, ZTE said that it was "actively" facilitating communications with the US department and may even appeal.
在之後的聲明中，中興表示，他們將“積極”促進和美國商務部的交流，甚至可能會採取上訴。Experts said that government efforts have been crucial in settling the issue. "Both the response of ZTE and the Chinese government after the export ban are timely and effective," Bai Ming, a research fellow at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation under the MOFCOM told the Global Times Monday.
專家表示，解決此次貿易爭端，政府發揮了非常關鍵的作用。隸屬於中國商務部的中國國際貿易和經濟合作研究院研究員白明說道：“出口禁令宣佈後，中興集團和中國政府都做出了及時有效的行動，”
