美国参议院将对人民币汇率采取政策—U.S. Senate is going to take measures with currency

线话英语|2011-11-02 16:50:39

China is warning of serious disruptions in U.S.-China trade ties if the U.S. Senate goes ahead with a measure to punish Beijing for undervaluing its currency. Senate members voted late Monday to proceed with the bill, setting the stage for several days of debate before it comes to a vote. If the bill becomes law, the United States could impose retaliatory tariffs on any country that deliberately keeps the value of its currency artificially low. Chinese officials denounced the bill Tuesday, saying the United States is using the currency issue as an excuse for protectionist trade measures. In a posting on the government website, foreign ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu said the bill "gravely" violates World Trade Organization rules and would seriously upset trade and economic relations between the two nations.

中国警告说，如果美国国会参议院通过议案，惩罚北京人为压估人民币汇率，将严重干扰美中贸易关系。美国国会参议院星期一晚间投票通过推进该议案的动议。议员们将花几天时间辩论，然后进行最后投票表决。如果该法案成为法律，美国可以对人为压低货币汇率的国家施加报复性关税。中国官员星期二谴责该法案，称美国利用汇率问题作为采取贸易保护主义措施的借口。中国外交部发言人马朝旭在中国政府网站上说，美国国会拟议中的议案严重违反了世界贸易组织规则，将严重损害两国经济关系。
