莫汉兴致颇浓地分享了他关注到的中企海外布局变化：其一，部分中企开始在欧洲本地设厂，既为当地 创造就业，也将生产直接融入欧洲供应链。同时，通过企业并购熟悉欧洲能源市场规则，实现多方共赢 的结果，有效化解部分争议。 其二，越来越多中企正主动融入当地社会。在英国曼彻斯特，中企深耕多年，推动成立了曼彻斯特中国 论坛。从技术合作到学生交流，从足球文化到项目投资，曼彻斯特与中国企业建立起了长期信任关系。 在希腊比雷埃夫斯港，中企赞助当地足球队，积极参与社区互动，与当地人一起过希腊节日和中国节 日。"人的主动融入最关键。"莫汉说，"无论在哪个国家，都要先懂当地文化，再谈合作。" 新华社伦敦9月24日电 记者手记丨这位英国学者谈"一带一路"，为何值得一听 新华社记者高文成 位于英国西北部兰卡斯特的兰卡斯特大学，今年第五次主办"一带一路"倡议跨学科会议。23日上午，记 者走进气氛热烈的会议现场，立刻被首位主旨发言嘉宾贾尔斯·莫汉所吸引。 莫汉是英国开放大学教授，深耕国际发展学领域多年，目前主持由欧洲研究理事会资助的项目"重新定 位发展：中国在欧洲基础设施投资的动力和影响"。欧洲研究理事会由欧盟设立，是欧洲顶尖的前沿研 究资助机 ...

Group 1 - Japan's Finance Minister Kato Katsunobu's response to the U.S. request for tariffs on China was a firm rejection, highlighting Japan's strategic balance in global trade and politics [1][3] - The U.S. has pressured G7, EU, and NATO members to impose tariffs of 50%-100% on China and India, citing their continued import of Russian oil as justification, but this approach lacks broad international support [3][4] - Japan's refusal to impose tariffs is rooted in its economic dependence on China, which is its largest trading partner, with bilateral trade expected to reach $380 billion in 2024 [3][4] Group 2 - Japan continues to import energy from Russia, with oil imports accounting for 1% and liquefied natural gas for 2.3% of total imports, making the U.S. request contradictory [4][6] - Japan's stance emphasizes the importance of WTO rules, as the proposed tariffs violate the most-favored-nation principle, reflecting Japan's commitment to maintaining a rules-based international trade order [4][9] - The rejection of U.S. tariff proposals is not an isolated incident, as other countries like the EU, South Korea, and Australia have also expressed reservations, indicating a decline in U.S. influence among allies [6][9] Group 3 - Japan's economic strategy prioritizes its own interests, balancing its security alliance with the U.S. while maintaining strong economic ties with China [7][9] - Kato's succinct response is seen as a diplomatic art, allowing Japan to assert its position without alienating either the U.S. or China, reflecting Japan's cautious approach in international relations [7][9] - Japan's refusal is viewed as a victory for multilateralism and rules-based trade, reinforcing the commitment to fair trade and economic cooperation in the context of globalization [9]

在当今国际舞台上，欧盟与中国的关系正经历一场复杂而微妙的博弈。随着俄乌冲突的持续升温，欧盟似乎选择了更加激进的对抗策略，不只对俄罗斯施加 制裁，最近还将目光转向了中国。这一切无疑让人们对欧洲委员会主席冯德莱恩的动机和后果产生了深刻的思考。 当冯德莱恩宣布将12家中国企业列入制裁名单时，声称这是为了"阻止资金流入"俄罗斯以支持战争。这种表面上的理由，实则隐藏着更深层的地缘政治操 作。近年来，欧盟一直在努力平衡与美国的关系与自身的利益。尤其是在特朗普政府的高压政策下，欧盟不得不不断地试图迎合美国，而这次制裁行动显然 是对美国要求的一种回应。 然而，这种单方面的举动显得不够理智。当前，欧盟不仅仅依赖俄罗斯的能源供应，同样也离不开中国的稀土资源。数据显示，欧盟90%的稀土精炼能力都 依赖中国，尤其是在电动车产业链中，德国汽车制造商等巨头无法承受失去中国供应的后果。因此，将制裁目标瞄准中国，无异于是自掘坟墓。 面对欧盟的挑衅，中国政府迅速做出了反应。商务部明确表示，将采取必要措施维护中国企业和金融机构的合法权益。这种态度不仅展现了中国的坚定立 场，更传递出一个信息：任何针对中国的制裁都将遭遇反击。令人关注的是，早在欧盟 ...
