A China-based business executive told POLITICO that Beijing is putting pressure on EU businesses to stop importing Lithuanian products 一位駐中國的企業執行長告訴 POLITICO,北京正在向歐盟企業施加壓力,要求停止進口立陶宛產品
The executive explained that two German companies in the auto industry had parts stopped at Chinese ports in recent days because they were manufactured in Lithuania. Some of these components could take years to be replaced with trusted alternative suppliers, he added. 他解釋二間德國汽車企業這幾天有零件被擋在中國港口,因為它們是立陶宛製造。一些配件需要花上數年找到其他值得信賴的供應商
French and Swedish firms are also reportedly facing similar problems because Lithuanian products form part of their supply chain, according to a European industry insider who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter. 法國和瑞典公司也報告面臨類似問題,因為立陶宛產品是他們的供應商,由於敏感性,此歐洲工業內線要求匿名。
A third person, from a European government, confirmed the state of affairs, adding that Beijing was still officially denying knowledge of the situation 第三個線民來自歐洲政府,確認此外交事務爭端,還提到北京官方仍否認知道有這些事發生
Despite efforts by EU Ambassador to China Nicolas Chapuis to intervene on Lithuania’s behalf, China has not publicly acknowledged any ban on Lithuanian products 儘管歐盟對中國大使Nicolas Chapuis代表立陶宛涉入其中,中國沒有公開承認禁止立陶宛產品
"What China is taking is a political step, and their goal is very clear, which is to threaten other member states in the EU not to follow the Lithuanian example by developing relations with Taiwan," Andrius Kubilius, former Lithuanian prime minister and currently a member of the European Parliament, told POLITICO. "中國進行的政治目標非常清楚,為了威脅其他歐盟成員不要跟隨立陶宛去發展與台灣關係"
歐盟貿易委員會尋求WTO的協助幫助有限 EU Trade Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis, from fellow Baltic country Latvia, has vocally supported Lithuania and has vowed to launch an investigation into whether Chinese measures are in line with WTO rules that the world's second-biggest economy has signed up to. However much he might wish to help, though, his options are limited

中共這種奧步,更加顯示自己的恐懼,恐懼什麼?立陶宛這麼做,搞不好會有越來越多國家跟進。
它還怕死自己14億人民。
