原标题：保护主义无助于提升欧盟汽车产业竞争力 【正听】 ◎胡定坤 据《金融时报》等外媒近日报道，欧盟委员会正计划发布《工业加速器法案》。该法案要求汽车企业必 须确保其汽车中至少70%的零部件产自欧盟境内，才能获得欧盟国家补贴和公共机构合同，其目的是保 护欧盟汽车产业免受来自中国的激烈竞争。 近年来，中国汽车，特别是电动汽车，在欧洲市场广受欢迎。2025年，中国车企在欧销售超过81万辆汽 车，比2024年增长99%，去年12月市场渗透率已接近10%。2026年1月，欧洲市场新车销量总量同比下 降3.6%，而中国汽车在欧销量仍同比上涨80%。特别值得注意的是，这是在欧盟对中国电动汽车征收高 达35%巨额关税的情况下，中国车企取得的成绩。 在关税壁垒失效的情况下，欧盟希望通过要求零部件本地生产，达到"一石二鸟"的目的——既阻止中国 车企获得欧盟国家补贴，在关税的基础上进一步削减中国电动汽车的价格优势；又强迫欧洲车企从本地 采购汽车零部件，促进欧盟本土汽车产业的发展和相关供应链的完善。 欧盟此举将严重违反平等、开放的国际贸易规则，是赤裸裸的贸易保护主义。世界贸易组织（WTO） 《与贸易有关的投资措施协定》明确规定，W ...
