商务部回应欧盟碳边境调节机制：坚决采取一切必要措施回应任何不公平贸易限制

Core Viewpoint - China expresses willingness to cooperate with the EU in addressing global climate change challenges while firmly opposing any unfair trade restrictions that threaten its development interests and the stability of global supply chains [1][2]. Group 1: EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) - The EU's CBAM will officially be implemented on January 1, 2026, with recent legislative proposals setting high default carbon emission intensity values for Chinese products, which do not reflect China's actual levels and future development trends [1]. - The EU plans to expand the CBAM to include approximately 180 steel and aluminum-intensive downstream products, such as machinery, automobiles, and household appliances, starting in 2028, which is seen as a unilateral and protectionist measure [1]. Group 2: Double Standards and Trade Protectionism - The EU has modified its 2035 ban on new fuel vehicles, relaxing green regulations internally while promoting protectionism externally under the guise of climate action, highlighting a contradiction in its approach [2]. - The EU's actions are perceived as imposing its carbon standards on developing countries, increasing their climate action costs, and undermining international cooperation on climate change and sustainable development [2].
