5月13日,欧盟中国商会发布关于欧委会撤销《外国补贴条例》项下对隆基和上海电气深度调查的答记者问。

有媒体问题,欧委会13日发布公告说,因隆基和上海电气方面撤出罗马尼亚光伏园公共采购,欧委会撤销《外国补贴条例》(FSR)相关调查,请问商会有何评论?
欧盟中国商会:我们注意到隆基德国公司和当地企业联合体、上海电气英国公司及香港公司联合体退出罗马尼亚光伏园的公共采购投标,以及欧委会13日官布撤销在《外国补贴条例》(FSR)项下对两家联合体深度调查的声明。
商会指出,中企撤出相关光伏园建设的公共投标实属无奈之举。罗马尼亚项目预计将产生巨大社会效益,包括生产绿电和创造当地就业机会,这与罗马尼亚政府能源转型目标相一致的;而欧委会在相关调查中不公正、不透明和涉嫌歧视性执法,使受影响的中企不得不遵从这一现实,撤出公共采购投标,这不仅给中企带来巨大的损失,也阻碍了欧方及欧盟成员国自身的绿色转型过程,凸显了欧委会滥用FSR调查所带来的不良后果——自身营商环境受损、欧盟绿色转型受阻及损失有竞争力的竞标中企的三输局面。    CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- NASA’s Psyche spacecraft rocketed away Friday on a six-year journey to a rare metal-covered asteroid.Most asteroids tend to be rocky or icy, and this is the first exploration of a metal world. Scientists believe it may be the battered remains of an early planet's core, and could shed light on the inaccessible centers of Earth and other rocky planets.SpaceX launched the spacecraft into an overcast midmorning sky from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. Named for the asteroid it’s chasing, Psyche should reach the huge, potato-shaped object in 2029.“It's so thrilling,” said Laurie Leshin, director of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Added Arizona State University's Jim Bell, part of the Psyche team: “What a great ride so far.”An hour later, the spacecraft separated successfully from the rocket's upper stage and floated away, drawing applause from ground controllers.After decades of visiting faraway worlds of rock, ice and gas, NASA is psyched to pursue one coated in metal. Of the nine or so metal-rich asteroids discovered so far, Psyche is the biggest, orbiting the sun in the outer portion of the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter alongside millions of other space rocks. It was discovered in 1852 and named after Greek mythology’s captivating goddess of the soul.“It’s long been humans’ dream to go to the metal core of our Earth. I mean, ask Jules Verne,” lead scientist Lindy Elkins-Tanton of Arizona State University said ahead of the launch. “The pressure is too high. The temperature is too high. The technology is impossible,” she said. “But there’s one way in our solar system that we can look at a metal core and that is by going to this asteroid.”Astronomers know from radar and other observations that the asteroid is big — about 144 miles (232 kilometers) across at its widest and 173 miles (280 kilometers) long. They believe it’s brimming with iron, nickel and other metals, and quite possibly silicates, with a dull, predominantly gray surface likely covered with fine metal grains from cosmic impacts.Otherwise, it’s a speck of light in the night sky, full of mystery until the spacecraft reaches it after traveling more than 2 billion miles (3.6 billion kilometers).Scientists envision spiky metal craters, huge metal cliffs and metal-encrusted eroded lava flows greenish-yellow from sulfur — “almost certain to be completely wrong,” according to Elkins-Tanton. It's also possible that trace amounts of gold, silver, platinum or iridium — iron-loving elements — could be dissolved in the asteroid's iron and nickel, she said. “There's a very good chance that it’s going to be outside of our imaginings, and that is my fondest hope," she said.Believed to be a planetary building block from the solar system’s formation 4.5 billion years ago, the asteroid can help answer such fundamental questions as how did life arise on Earth and what makes our planet habitable, according to Elkins-Tanton.On Earth, the planet's iron core is responsible for the magnetic field that shields our atmosphere and enables life.Led by Arizona State University on NASA’s behalf, the $1.2 billion mission will use a roundabout route to get to the asteroid. The van-size spacecraft with solar panels big enough to fill a tennis court will swoop past Mars for a gravity boost in 2026. Three years later, it will reach the asteroid and attempt to go into orbit around it, circling as high as 440 miles (700 kilometers) and as close as 47 miles (75 kilometers) until at least 2031.The spacecraft relies on solar electric propulsion, using xenon gas-fed thrusters and their gentle blue-glowing pulses. An experimental communication system is also along for the ride, using lasers instead of radio waves in an attempt to expand the flow of data from deep space to Earth. NASA expects the test to yield more than 10 times the amount of data, enough to transmit videos from the moon or Mars one day.The spacecraft should have soared a year ago, but was held up by delays in flight software testing attributed to poor management and other issues. The revised schedule added extra travel time. So instead of arriving at the asteroid in 2026 as originally planned, the spacecraft won’t get there until 2029.That’s the same year that another NASA spacecraft — the one that just returned asteroid samples to the Utah desert — will arrive at a different space rock as it buzzes Earth.___The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Science and Educational Media Group.

欧盟中国商会再次对欧委会在FSR下“选择性”信息披露和涉嫌对中企歧视性执法表达关切。商会指出,在同一个罗马尼亚光伏园建设招标中,其他非欧盟实体参与相同招标过程并未受到类似调查,这种选择性执法引发对欧方公平性、客观性和一致性的质疑,欧方举动也将对中企在欧声誉和竞争力产生不利影响。
欧盟中国商会指出,“外国财政贡献”并不等于“外国补贴”,欧委会未能就“外国财政贡献”如何给特定企业或行业带来特定利益提供足够理由或解释,引发各方对调查过程公平性和透明性的担忧。
此外,欧盟中国商会还对欧委会在调查中对中企提出过分宽泛的信息收集要求和潜在的敏感商业数据披露表达关切。

C | 商会再次重申,欧委会相关的外国补贴调查应将信息收集要求限制在直接参与公共采购招标及其相关活动的实体上,而不是扩大到其母公司和附属公司。

欧盟中国商会强调,企业承担非常庞杂的举证工作,且欧方未给予企业充足时间准备材料,给中企合规工作带来后大挑战与障碍。商会还认为,相关FSR深度调查或涉嫌违反世界贸易组织(WTO)有关规定,呼吁欧方重新评估其执法,确保符合国际贸易规则和对所有涉及方的公平待遇。
欧盟中国商会再次呼吁,欧盟机构在FSR执法中应遵守市场开放和公平竞争原则,避免对外国企业造成歧视,防止出现新扭曲。与此同时,由于FSR极大增加中企在欧发展的不确定性,引发各方对欧盟不断升级的保护主义倾向和滥用政策工具的深切担忧,商会强烈呼吁欧方立即重新评估FSR实施及其对欧盟投资和公共采购领域的不利影响。

商会敦促欧盟客观看待中企对欧洲绿色转型和社会发展的贡献,并确保为中企提供公平、公正、透明和非歧视的经营环境。
