为何印度不对美国采取报复措施，印网友：因为实力不够啊

 Why India is not retaliating against the US

为何印度不对美国采取报复措施？

 

NEW DELHI: The US decision to end the Generalised System of Preferences (GSP)  for India from June 5, has surprisingly, come in for a mild criticism from the Indian government which described the US President Donald Trump’s decision as “unfortunate.” So why is New Delhi playing it so cool at the withdrawal of GSP?

新德里：美国决定从6月5日起终止对印度的普惠制待遇，然而令人惊讶的是，印度政府仅作出温和批评，称美国总统唐纳德•特朗普的决定是“不幸的”。“那么，为何新德里在得知普惠制待遇被取消时表现得如此冷静?”

Expiry date: The GSP was due to expire next year, in December 2020 — having been in force since 1975. All that Trump's decision does is to end it a year and a half before its deadline.

普惠制有效期限:自1975年起生效的普惠制将于明年2020年12月到期。特朗普的决定意味着，这一待遇会在最后期限前一年半结束。

Peanuts on offer: The bilateral trade between the world's oldest and largest democracies was $65.1 billion in FY 19 (April-December) and despite it being heavily tilted in India's favour — exports to US accounted for $38.8 billion while imports from US were $26.3 billion — the benefits from the GSP status due to savings on import tariffs amounted to just $190 million as only $6 billion worth of Indian exports are duty free.

全球最古老的国家和最大的国家之间的双边贸易在2019财年(4月至12月)达到651亿美元，其中印度对美国的出口为388亿美元，而从印度从美国进口额为263亿美元。由于印度只有60亿美元的出口额是免税的，因此普惠制为印度所节省的进口关税仅为1.9亿美元。

Why India isn't ruffled? For one, India has the option of taking the US’ GSP withdrawal to the WTO — it already has a precedent when it won against the EU's withdrawal of GSP in 2002 for being discriminatory against developing countries. Secondly, the US has in the recent past reinstated GSP after withdrawing it — as it did in Argentina's case last year after certain criteria were met.

为什么印度没有被激怒?首先，印度可以选择将美国取消普惠制(GSP)这一情况看提交到世贸组织(WTO)。这是有先例可循的，2002年，欧盟(EU)取消印度的普惠制，当时印度提交到WTO，并胜诉。其次，美国最近在撤销阿根廷普惠制后又恢复了其普惠制待遇——去年阿根廷在满足某些标准后得以恢复。

Mutual need: The US is India's second largest trading partner, after China — which also explains why New Delhi has postponed retaliatory tariffs on $200 million worth of American goods eight times since last year, in response to US tariffs on Indian steel and aluminum. On the other hand, several US companies like Amazon, Walmart, Google and Facebook have invested billions of dollars to expand operations in India — and any major economic retaliation could put these in jeopardy.

相互需要:美国是印度第二大贸易伙伴，仅次于中国——这也解释了为什么自去年以来，印度8次推迟对价值2亿美元的美国商品征收报复性关税，以回应美国对印度钢铁和铝征收的关税。另一方面，亚马逊(Amazon)、沃尔玛(Walmart)、谷歌和Facebook等几家美国公司已投资数十亿美元扩大在印度的业务，而任何大的经济报复都可能使这些企业陷入危险。

Ignoring USA actions is right step by Indian Government...USA can not be no.1 super power without India...

无视美国的举动，印度政府这样做是对的…没有印度，美国不可能保持头号超级大国的地位…

Ru Acharya• 269 • Ashok Kamath • 13 hours ago

That is not quite true. India needs US a lot more than the US needs India. I am sure in due time India will reach its potential. For now though, India is too small economically...

不完全正确。相比美国需要印度，印度更需要美国。我相信印度会在适当的时候发挥其潜力。但就目前而言，印度经济规模太小了……

Well, India may be bit poor country for the time being, but, it is not "under-developed" country by any means. I do not think that India will suffer in any way ? The worry is trade deficit of $63 billions and increasing, because of, Indian massive demand of Chinese low tech, cheap goods.

印度可能暂时有点穷，但目前无论如何都不是一个“欠发达”的国家。我认为印度不会受影响。令人担忧的是对中国630亿美元的贸易逆差，而且由于印度对廉价中国商品的需求太大了，中印贸易逆差还在不断扩大。

USA is true friend of India from the day Dr. Manmohan Singh laid best friendship with USA. Narendra Modi has done better than earlier. USA just want India to be away from Russia. That''s it. However, India''s scoring would be high and better with days to come. Only windfall profits. No loss I foresee.

从曼莫汉·辛格与美国建立友谊之日起，美国就是印度真正的朋友。纳伦德拉•莫迪比前任做得更好。美国只是想让印度远离俄罗斯，仅此而已。然而，印度在未来的日子里会发展得更好。

India doesn''t need the US, the US needs India more. The status doesn''t change anything much as India is a growing economy. China is the largest only export economy and is having issues and problems now, Europe is nothing, Arabs, Muslims or Middle East are nothing, except for oil. For India most trade will be with Russia, Japan and the US. Eventually, the Chinese cheap and inferior products will not be needed.

印度不需要美国，美国更需要印度。印度是一个不断增长的经济体，这种状况不会有太大改变。中国是全球最大的出口型经济体。要不是有石油，中东啥也不是。印度大部分贸易与俄罗斯、日本和美国进行。最终，印度将不再需要廉价的中国商品。

rather than dependent on these tariff relief, we should strengthen our manufacturing by cost optimisation and improvement in efficiency.

我们不应依赖关税减免来过日子，应通过降低成本和提高效率来提升制造业。

what can India do and how can they react..? Trump is real Papa and has guts. On the other hand Modi cannot influence him or American lobby.

What a bunch of lame reasons. There is only reason why India can't retaliate and it's not written here because it's humiliating, it's because we are not powerful enough to dictate terms to USA whereas they can dictate terms to us. Same reason we won't buy Iranian oil.

真是一堆站不住脚的理由。印度为什么不能报复，还不是因为我们没有足够的实力向美国发号施令，而美国可以向我们发号施令。不同样的，由于忌惮美国，我们也不敢买伊朗石油。

Not really. India has a trade surplus with the US and the going is too good. To pick a fight on $190 million impact is to wake a sleeping giant and make India the target for higher reciprocal tariffs. I hope you know average US tariffs is less than 5% and average Indian tariffs is 25%. So you want to pick a fight? What will be the outcome?

不对。印度对美国可是贸易顺差，形势大好。为1.9亿美元而进行报复，无异于唤醒沉睡的巨人，会让印度成为靶子的。美国的平均关税低于5%，印度的平均关税是25%。怎么开战?结果会怎样?

Can India retaliate, does it have the potential? NO, a definite NO, because India is not China. No point in trying to mimic China when we are far far behind China interms of development of money.

印度能报复吗，有这个能力吗?绝对没有，印度可不是中国。资金实力远没有中国强大，邯郸学步又有何意义。
