中方：如有人逼我们打贸易战 我们一不怕二不躲

原标题：华春莹谈中美贸易战：一不会怕二不会躲
在3月21日外交部例行记者会上，有记者问及：根据《华尔街日报》等报道，美国商会、全美零售商协会、美国信息技术产业理事会等代表美国大企业的45家贸易协会联名向政府请愿，敦促不要对中国征收关税，警告如强行征税将损害美经济、消费者和竞争力。另外，有报道称，芝加哥布斯商学院举办的“全球市场倡议”IGM论坛上，43名顶尖经济学家警告，征税无助于改善美国人生计，反而可能损害大部分美国人的利益。与此同时，根据欧洲媒体报道，美国贸易代表表示，欧盟要想豁免美对欧征收钢铁和铝关税，就必须和美一起应对中国钢铁“倾销”。你对此有何回应？
华春莹：近期关于美国与其他国家，包括美国与中国贸易摩擦问题，各方都很关注，也都纷纷表达了对维护正常国际贸易秩序和世界经济稳定的担忧。对此我们也在不同场合明确表达了中方的立场。
我愿就你提的问题再强调几点：
一、中美经贸关系的本质是互利共赢的，近40年来，中美经贸合作给两国提供了巨大市场，创造了大量就业机会，还非常可观地降低了美国家庭的平均开支负担。我看到过一个数字，2015年中美经贸合作帮助每个美国家庭节省了约850美元。如果美方没有从中美经贸合作中获取实实在在的利益，中美经贸合作不可能得到如此持续快速的增长。
二、中方从不刻意追求顺差。造成当前中美贸易不平衡的因素是多方面的，解决的正确思路是扩大对彼此市场的开放，做大合作蛋糕，而不是打什么贸易战，或者强买强卖。
三、打贸易战没有赢家。这个世界上没有谁能穿着传说中刀枪不入的“金丝软猬甲”，乱舞大棒伤人，自己却毫发无损。你提到多家美国贸易协会的请愿、多名经济学家的观点以及世界多国的反应都明白无误地表明了这点。我还看到有报道说，根据美国国内一份民调，半数美国人反对提高钢铝产品关税。还有观点认为征税行为将对美制造业等下游产业造成严重冲击，导致其他经济部门减少18万个就业机会。
四、中方不想跟任何人打贸易战，但如果有人非逼迫我们打，我们一不会怕，二不会躲。如果美方采取损害中方利益的行动，中方必将采取坚决和必要的应对措施，维护好自身的正当权益。

Original title: Hua Chunying talks about the Sino-US trade war: One will not be afraid that two will not hide
At the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on March 21, a reporter asked: According to the "Wall Street Journal" and other reports, the American Chamber of Commerce, the National Retail Association, the United States Information Technology Industry Council and other 45 trade associations representing large US companies. Jointly petitioned the government, urging not to impose tariffs on China, warning that if forced taxation will harm the US economy, consumers and competitiveness. In addition, there are reports that 43 top economists at the “Global Market Initiative” IGM forum organized by the Chicago Booth School of Business warned that taxation will not help Americans improve their livelihood, but may damage the interests of most Americans. . At the same time, according to European media reports, U.S. trade representatives said that if the EU wants to waive the US tariff on steel and aluminum imports from Europe, it must cope with the “dumping” of Chinese steel. How do you respond to this?
Hua Chunying: Recently, all parties concerned about the trade friction between the United States and other countries, including the United States and China, have expressed their concerns about maintaining the normal international trade order and the stability of the world economy. We also clearly expressed China's position on different occasions.
I would like to emphasize a few points on your question:
1. The nature of Sino-U.S. economic and trade relations is mutually beneficial and win-win. In the past 40 years, China-U.S. economic and trade cooperation has provided a huge market for the two countries and created a large number of employment opportunities. It has also considerably reduced the average expenditure burden on American families. I have seen a number. In 2015, the Sino-U.S. economic and trade cooperation helped each American family save about 850 US dollars. If the United States has not obtained tangible benefits from Sino-U.S. economic and trade cooperation, Sino-U.S. economic and trade cooperation will not be able to achieve such sustained and rapid growth.
Second, China has never deliberately pursued a surplus. The factors that have contributed to the current trade imbalance between China and the United States are manifold. The correct way to resolve this problem is to expand the market opening to each other and to expand the cooperation of the cake instead of playing a trade war or buying and selling.
Third, there is no winner in the trade war. No one in the world can wear the legendary "silver soft armor," fluffing big sticks and wounding himself, but he is unscathed. You mentioned that the petitions of several U.S. trade associations, the opinions of many economists, and the reactions of many countries in the world have clearly demonstrated this. I also saw reports that according to a domestic poll in the United States, half of Americans oppose increasing tariffs on steel and aluminum products. There are also views that taxation will have a serious impact on downstream industries such as the US manufacturing industry, leading to a reduction of 180,000 jobs in other economic sectors.
Fourth, China does not want to fight a trade war with anyone. However, if someone does not force us to fight, we will not be afraid. Second, we will not hide. If the U.S. side takes action that harms the interests of China, China will take resolute and necessary countermeasures and safeguard its own legitimate rights and interests.
