当地时间1月15日,经过中美两国经贸团队的共同努力,在平等和相互尊重的基础上,中美双方在美国首都华盛顿正式签署第一阶段经贸协议。协议文本包括序言、知识产权、技术转让、食品和农产品、金融服务、汇率和透明度、扩大贸易、双边评估和争端解决、最终条款九个章节。同时,双方达成一致,美方将履行分阶段取消对华产品加征关税的相关承诺,实现加征关税由升到降的转变。协议文本主要内容是什么?该如何解读?人民日报记者第一时间采访了权威专家。

(本文就协议涉及农业方面作一报道)

增加中美农业合作有利于满足我国消费需求,推进农业供给侧结构性改革,提升农业发展质量

根据协议,中美将加强和促进双方农业领域合作。“总体看,农业协议是平等互利的,我国农民和农业发展将获得实实在在的利益。”中国人民大学国发院研究院、经济学院教授程大为说。

协议提出,中方将按照加入世贸组织承诺,完善小麦、玉米、大米关税配额管理办法。程大为表示,按照配额管理,中国一年将进口总量2000多万吨的谷物,占全年粮食消费量的比例不过3.4%,即便全部用完配额,对国内市场影响也很小,“中国人的饭碗依然端得稳,饭碗里装的主要仍是中国粮。”程大为说。

在经贸磋商期间,美国已发布最终规则,承认中国鲇鱼监管体系与美国等效,允许中国的熟制禽肉输美。协议规定,美国将允许中国产香梨、柑橘、鲜枣等农产品出口美国。美方作出的这些承诺将带给中国农业企业和农民更多市场机会。

根据协议,中方将增加对美国乳品、牛肉、大豆、水产品、水果、饲料、宠物食品等农产品进口,今后两年平均进口规模为400亿美元。在程大为看来,中美双方农业互补性很强,是天然的农业合作伙伴,扩大自美农产品进口有利于满足我国消费需求,推进农业供给侧结构性改革,提升农业发展质量。

2018年,我国大豆消费量为1.05亿吨,国内产量仅1600万吨,缺口十分明显。扩大进口美国大豆,将有效缓解国内紧缺,满足国内饲料蛋白需求。此外,我国农产品消费结构正在升级,扩大进口有利于优化食品结构、丰富百姓餐桌、更好满足美好生活需要,也有利于节约资源,推动国内农业加快创新步伐、提高生产效率。

值得注意的是,中方增加自美进口农产品,要基于市场原则,由市场主体自主决策。美国农产品的价格应当有竞争力,必须符合中国农产品质量安全标准。“这就意味着,美国企业想在中国市场上获得份额,必须提高竞争力,让中国企业和消费者自愿购买,这也避免了部分美国供应商‘坐地起价’的可能。”程大为说。

扩大自美进口规模符合我国既定方针和现实所需,将由中国企业和消费者根据市场原则自愿购买,政府不会为实现这一规模而采取行政指令、财政补贴等方式

协议提出,中方将扩大自美农产品、能源产品、工业制成品、服务产品进口,未来两年的进口规模,要在2017年基数上增加不少于2000亿美元。对此,程大为认为,“中美双边贸易具有很强互补性。扩大进口有利于优化资源配置、调整产业结构、适应消费需求、促进中国经济高质量发展。”

程大为表示,中方从不刻意追求贸易顺差,始终追求自由贸易,坚持通过扩大进口实现外贸平衡发展。连续两年举办进博会、大幅度降低部分进口商品关税已经充分说明,扩大进口是中方的既定方针和一贯的工作方向。

扩大进口符合经济规律。与美国相比,中国在制造业、服务业、农业等领域尚有差距,扩大自美进口有利于更好满足人民日益增长的美好生活需要,提高国内企业创新能力和经营效率,推动产业转型升级。增加自美能源进口,将有助于我国实现能源进口多元化,保障能源供给安全。而且双方将基于市场价格和商业考虑开展采购活动。

扩大进口会不会冲击中国产业?程大为认为,短期看,扩大进口可能会影响部分中国企业的市场空间,但看大局、看长远,技术进口的溢出效应、先进管理理念和机制的引入以及外部压力和良性竞争的倒逼都将有利于我国产业加快转型升级。

未来两年自美进口增加不少于2000亿美元能否实现?程大为认为,首先,我国拥有近14亿人口的大市场和4亿中等收入群体,中国经济稳中向好、长期向好的基本趋势没有改变,对中国市场需求的稳定增长要有足够信心。其次,不少于2000亿美元的商品将由中国企业和消费者根据市场原则自愿购买,“政府不会为实现这一规模而采取行政指令、财政补贴等方式。”此外,为实现这一规模,美方也要创造有利条件,应确保采取适当举措以便有足够的美国商品和服务供中国采购和进口。这还将推进美国将一些中国企业移出“实体清单”,“如果中国企业因为‘实体清单’限制而在经营上受到影响、采购能力打折,无法进口足够的产品和服务,那么责任就完全在美方。”程大为说。

扩大自美进口,会不会影响其他贸易伙伴的利益?程大为认为,“中国市场空间巨大,也始终欢迎各国供应商平等竞争,只要各国的产品和服务足够优质,就不愁在中国市场找不到空间。”

美国贸易代表办公室声明和协议文本

美国贸易代表办公室声明:

Washington, DC –  The United States and China have reached an historic and enforceable agreement on a Phase One trade deal that requires structural reforms and other changes to China’s economic and trade regime in theareas of intellectual property, technology transfer, agriculture, financial services, and currency and foreign exchange. The Phase One agreement also includes a commitment by China that it will make substantial additional purchases of U.S. goods and services in the comingyears.  Importantly, the agreement establishes a strong dispute resolution system that ensures prompt and effective implementation and enforcement. The United States has agreed to modify its Section 301 tariff actions in a significant way. 

 美国和中国就第一阶段贸易协议达成了一项具有历史意义和可执行的协议,该协议要求在知识产权、技术转让、农业、金融服务、货币和外汇等领域对中国的经济和贸易体制进行结构性改革和其他改变。第一阶段协议还包括:中国承诺在未来几年内增加购买大量美国商品和服务。更为重要的是,该协议建立了强有力的争端解决机制,以确保迅速和有效地实施和执行。美国已同意大幅修改其根据301法案制定的关税

“President Trump has focused on concluding a Phase One agreement that achieves meaningful, fully-enforceable structural changes and begins rebalancing the U.S.-China trade relationship.  This unprecedented agreement accomplishes those very significant goals and would not have been possible without the President’s strong leadership,” said United States Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer.  

贸易代表莱特希泽说:“特朗普总统致力于达成第一阶段的协议,实现有意义的、完全可执行的结构性转变,并开始重新平衡美-中贸易关系。这项史无前例的协议实现了这些非常重要的目标,如果没有特朗普总统的强有力的领导,这是不可能的。” 

“Today’s announcement of a Phase One agreement with China is another significant step forward in advancing President Trump’s economic agenda.  Thanks to the President’s leadership, this landmark agreement marks critical progress toward a more balanced trade relationship and a more level playing field for American workers and companies,” said Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin.  

财政部长姆钦说:“今天宣布的与中国达成的第一阶段协议是推进特朗普总统经济议程的又一重要步骤。在总统的领导下,这一具有程碑式的协议标志着(我们)朝着更平衡的贸易关系和为美国工人和公司提供更公平的竞争环境的关键进展。” 

The United States first imposed tariffs on imports from China based on the findings of the Section 301 investigation on China’s acts, policies, and practices related to technology transfer, intellectual property, and innovation. The United States will be maintaining 25 percent tariffs on approximately $250 billion of Chinese imports, along with 7.5 percent tariffson approximately $120 billion of Chinese imports.  

美国首次对来自中国的进口产品征收关税,是基于对中国在技术转让、知识产权和创新方面的行为、政策和做法进行的301调查的结果。美国将对大约2500亿美元的中国进口商品维持25%的关税,对大约1200亿美元的中国进口商品维持7.5%的关税。

协议摘要:

Intellectual Property: The Intellectual Property (IP) chapter addresses numerous longstanding concerns in the areas of trade secrets, pharmaceutical-related intellectual property, geographical indications, trademarks, and enforcement against pirated and counterfeit goods. 

知识产权:知识产权章节涉及在商业秘密、与制药相关的知识产权、地理标识、商标以及打击盗版和假冒商品的执法等领域中存在的众多长期问题。

2.Technology Transfer: The Technology Transfer chapter sets out binding and enforceable obligations to addressseveral of the unfair technology transfer practices of China that were identified in USTR’s Section 301 investigation. For the first time in any trade agreement, China has agreed to end its long-standing practice of forcing orpressuring foreign companies to transfer their technology to Chinese companiesas a condition for obtaining market access, administrative approvals, orreceiving advantages from the government. China also commits to provide transparency, fairness, and due process in administrative proceedings and to have technology transfer and licensing take place on market terms. Separately, China further commits to refrain from directing or supporting outboundinvestments aimed at acquiring foreign technology pursuant to industrial plansthat create distortion. 

 技术转让:技术转让章节规定了有约束力和可执行的义务,以应对美国贸易代表办公室301调查中发现的中国的若干不公平的技术转让行为。在所有贸易协定中,中国首次同意结束长期以来强迫或施压外国公司向中国公司转让技术并以此作为获得市场准入、行政审批或获得政府优势的条件的做法。中国还承诺在行政诉讼中提供透明、公平和正当程序,并在市场法则下进行技术转让和许可。此外,中国还承诺不根据造成扭曲的产业计划,指导或支持旨在获取外国技术的对外投资。 

3.Agriculture: The Agriculture Chapter addresses structural barriers to trade and will support a dramatic expansion of U.S. food, agriculture and seafood product exports, increasing American farmand fishery income, generating more rural economic activity, and promoting job growth. A multitude of non-tariff barriers to U.S. agriculture and seafood products are addressed, including for meat, poultry, seafood, rice, dairy, infant formula, horticultural products, animal feed and feed additives, petfood, and products of agriculture biotechnology.  

农业:农业章节涉及贸易的结构性壁垒,并将支持美国食品、农业和海产品出口的大幅扩大,增加美国农业和渔业收入,创造更多的农村经济活动,促进就业增长。针对美国农业和海鲜产品的众多非关税壁垒将得到解决,包括肉类、家禽、海鲜、大米、奶制品、婴儿配方奶粉、园艺产品、动物饲料和饲料添加剂、宠物食品以及农业生物技术产品。

4.Financial Services: The Financial Services chapter addresses a number of longstanding trade and investment barriers to U.S. providers of a wide range of financial services, including banking, insurance, securities, and credit rating services, among others. These barriers include foreign equity limitations and discriminatory regulatory requirements. Removal of these barriers should allow U.S. financial service providers to compete on a more level playing field and expand their services export offerings in the Chinese market.  

金融服务:金融服务章节处理美国金融服务提供商长期存在的贸易和投资壁垒,包括银行、保险、证券和信用评级等服务,包括:外国股本限制和歧视性监管要求。消除这些障碍将使美国金融服务提供商能够在更公平的竞争环境中竞争,并扩大它们在中国市场的服务出口产品。 

5.Currency: The chapter on Macroeconomic Policies and Exchange Rate Matters includes policy and transparency commitments on currency issues. The chapter addresses unfair currency practices by requiring high-standard commitments to refrain from competitive devaluations and targeting of exchange rates, while significantly increasing transparency and providing mechanisms for accountability and enforcement. This approach will help reinforce macroeconomic and exchange rate stability and ensure that China cannot use currency practices to unfairly compete against U.S. exporters.  

货币:关于“宏观经济政策和汇率事项”的章节包括有关货币问题的政策和透明度承诺。这一章针对(中国)不公平的汇率做法,要求作出高标准的承诺,避免竞争性贬值和(设置)汇率目标,同时显著提高透明度,并提供问责和执行机制。这种做法将有助于加强宏观经济和汇率稳定,并确保中国不会利用汇率手段不公平地与美国出口商竞争。 

6.Expanding Trade: The Expanding Trade chapter includes commitments from China toimport various U.S. goods and services over the next two years in a total amount that exceeds China’s annual level of imports for those goods and services in 2017 by no less than $200 billion. China’s commitments cover a variety of U.S. manufactured goods, food, agricultural and seafood products, energy products, and services. China’s increased imports of U.S. goods and services are expected to continue on this same trajectory for several years after 2021 and should contribute significantly to the rebalancing of the U.S.-China trade relationship.  

扩大贸易:本章的内容包括:中国承诺在未来两年内进口美国各种商品和服务,总额在中国2017年对这些商品和服务的年度进口额的基础上增加不低于2000亿美元。中国的承诺包括美国制造的各种产品、食品、农产品和海产品、能源产品和服务。中国对美国商品和服务进口的增加预计将在2021年后的几年里继续保持这一趋势,并将对美中贸易关系的再平衡做出重大贡献。

7. Dispute Resolution: The Dispute Resolution chapter sets forth an arrangement to ensure the effective implementation of the agreement and to allow the parties to resolve disputes in a fair and expeditious manner. This arrangement creates regular bilateral consultations at both the principal level and the workinglevel. It also establishes strong procedures for addressing disputes related to the agreement and allows each party to take proportionate responsive actions that it deems appropriate.  

争端解决:本章做了一些安排,以确保本协定得到有效执行,并允许各方以公平和快速的方式解决争端。这一安排在领导层级别和执行层面建立了定期双边磋商机制。它还为处理与协议有关的争端建立了强有力的程序,并允许每一当事方采取它认为适当的相应行动。
