强盗彻底不装了，欧盟计划出台新规，中企想要投资就必须交出技术

Core Viewpoint - The European Union (EU) is planning to implement new regulations that will require foreign companies, particularly Chinese firms, to transfer core technologies as a condition for investment in key EU markets, which contradicts the principles of free market and fair competition [3][4][10]. Group 1: EU's New Regulations - The EU is set to introduce regulations in November that will mandate foreign companies to meet three conditions: forced technology transfer, use of EU goods and labor, and value addition within the EU [3][4]. - The EU's stance is framed as a "reciprocal principle," but it is criticized as a blatant form of "technology extortion" [4][10]. Group 2: Criticism of EU's Actions - The EU's demands are seen as hypocritical, especially since it has long accused China of enforcing technology transfers without legal backing [3][4]. - The EU's actions are interpreted as a response to its declining industrial competitiveness, particularly in emerging sectors like clean energy and electric vehicles [6][10]. Group 3: Responses from China - China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly opposed the EU's proposed forced technology transfer, emphasizing that such actions violate World Trade Organization (WTO) rules [8][10]. - China has the capability to implement reciprocal measures against the EU, potentially harming European companies that rely on such extortionate practices [10][12]. Group 4: Implications for International Business - The EU's approach is viewed as damaging to its credibility in the international business community, as it sets a precedent for treating foreign investments with hostility [10][12]. - The actions of the EU could lead to a significant reduction in foreign investment, transforming Europe into an "investment desert" [10][12].
