收购基础设施和科技公司的中国买家面临更多审查
“我们不是天真的自由贸易主义者。欧洲必须始终捍卫自身的战略利益。”欧盟委员会主席容克(Jean-Claude Juncker)去年在发布欧盟区内外国投资审查计划时这样表示。美国自上世纪70年代以来就有这类规定,而且势必进一步收紧。欧盟过去对外国收购的态度要放松些,如今也变得强硬起来。“WE ARE not naive free traders. Europe must always defend its strategic interests,(词汇)” said Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, last year as he introduced plans to screen foreign investment into the European Union. America has had such rules since the 1970s; they are set to(句型) tighten further. The EU used to be more relaxed about acquisitions by foreigners. Now it too is toughening up.
V-T When an organization screens people who apply to join it, it investigates them to make sure that they are not likely to cause problems.
此次矛头指向中国,中国企业一直在大肆收购(见图表)。联合国贸易和发展会议(UNCTAD,简称“贸发会议”)的詹晓宁指出,中国政府已经在遏制中国企业收购那些华而不实的目标,如足球俱乐部和酒店等,但中方投资仍在持续流入科技和基础设施领域。
