墨西哥拟对有关贸易伙伴提高进口关税税率 中国商务部回应 中新社北京9月11日电 (记者 尹倩芸)就墨西哥拟对有关贸易伙伴提高进口关税税率，中国商务部新闻发 言人11日晚间表示，中方将密切关注墨方提税动向，并对有关最终措施进行认真评估。 据报道，墨西哥拟对包括中国在内的未与墨签署自贸协定的国家，将汽车、玩具、钢铁、纺织品和塑料 制品等约1400项税目产品的进口关税税率提升至10%—50%。 发言人称，在当前美方滥施关税引发全球普遍反对之际，各国应加强沟通协调，共同维护自由贸易和多 边主义，绝不能因为他人胁迫而牺牲第三方的利益。在此背景下，墨方任何的单边加税举动，即便是在 世贸规则框架内，都会被认为是对单边霸凌主义的绥靖与妥协。 发言人说，有关措施一旦落地，不仅会损害包括中国在内的相关贸易伙伴的利益，也会严重影响墨营商 环境的确定性，降低企业对墨投资的信心。中墨互为重要经贸伙伴，中方不愿看到双方经贸合作因此受 到影响，希望墨方慎之又慎，三思后行。 发言人表示，中方一贯主张各方通过平等对话协商解决经贸分歧，反对任何形式的单边主义、保护主义 以及歧视性排他性措施，坚决反对各种损害中方利益的做法。中方将根据实际情况采取 ...

中墨经贸合作成果丰硕，既源于双方对彼此经济互补性的深刻认知，也得益于两国在推进贸易自由化、 经济全球化进程中的高度共识。中国始终倡导自由贸易和经济全球化，坚决反对单边主义和保护主义。 墨西哥长期以来同样是自由贸易的推动者和受益者。 事实证明，墨西哥的发展离不开稳定开放的外部环境。维护中墨贸易关系，符合墨西哥的根本利益。在 当前国际局势复杂多变、个别国家屡屡破坏全球贸易秩序的情况下，中墨之间稳定的贸易关系尤为可 贵，对墨西哥经济社会发展意义重大。 墨西哥国内近期出现一些关于加征关税的非理性声音，与个别国家的胁迫和压力密切相关。一些国家不 仅滥用关税和制裁工具，扭曲市场规则、扰乱全球供应链，还不断向他国施压，要求其对华采取限制措 施。对此，墨西哥应当看清，一个国家的贸易信誉和政策自主性，是其开展对外合作的重要基础。倘若 屈服于外部胁迫，放弃政策自主性，将失信于国际社会，丧失投资与贸易信誉，造成的长期损失会远远 超过所谓的"政治收益"。 日前外媒报道称，墨政府考虑对与墨西哥未签署贸易协议国家的进口商品加征关税，其中包括中国。关 税问题不仅关系到双边经贸往来，更关乎国际贸易秩序与全球经济稳定。对此，包括墨西哥在内的世 ...
