在中国与美国日益紧张的关税关系下,周三,中国任命了一位新的高级国际贸易谈判代表。

政府宣布,李成刚被任命接替王守文,后者曾深度参与2020年中美贸易协议的谈判。

自美国对多个国家加征关税以来,世界最大的两个经济体持续提高对彼此出口商品的关税,其中中国输往美国的货物面临145%的高关税,而其他国家大部分获得了90天的关税宽限期。

中国经济在周三早些时候发布数据,显示一季度以5.4%的年增长率扩张,主要得益于出口强劲。不过,分析师认为,由于中国对美出口关税生效,预计未来几个月全球第二大经济体的增长将显著减缓。

出口被视为推动中国在2024年实现5%年增长率的关键驱动力之一,而今年官方设定的增长目标仍维持在5%左右。

与此同时,北京对美国的出口商品征收了最高125%的关税来报复,同时强调他们会保持市场对贸易和投资开放。

中国国家统计局新闻发言人盛来运向记者表示,短期而言,加征关税将对中国经济带来压力,但不会影响经济的长期增长趋势。

中国更换谈判代表的原因暂不明确,此变动正值中国官员强调该国能以多种方式应对美国行动,如更侧重拥有14亿人口的巨大国内市场,以及欧洲和全球南方国家。然而,由于国内消费持续疲软,难以完全替代美国市场。

中国进一步收紧了稀土出口管制,这些关键材料广泛应用于高端科技、航空航天以及国防工业。

在此次任命之前,李成刚曾担任中国驻世界贸易组织大使约四年半,世界贸易组织是负责管理全球贸易的国际机构,北京就其与美国的关税争议在该组织提出申诉。

他还担任过中国常驻联合国日内瓦办事处及瑞士其他国际组织的副代表。

他曾在商务部担任助理部长,并主管该部条约与法律事务。

李成刚毕业于中国知名的北京大学法学院,取得了法学学士学位,后在汉堡大学深造,获得了经济法硕士学位。
