周三,Solarword领衔的美国太阳能企业联盟向美国国际贸易委员会(ITC)和美国商务部(DOC)提起贸易诉讼,要求美国政府对中国进口的太阳能产品征收反倾销和反补贴关税。对此,全球最大的太阳电池板制造商中国尚德电力(NYSE:STP)做出如下声明:
“目前,我们正在审查Solarword提交给美国国际贸易委员会和美国商务部的诉讼申请。任何一家企业都有权利提交这类申请,但是绝不意味着已经获得美国政府的批准。诉讼状中所列企业也不能一概而论,包括尚德电力在内的每家企业都将按照美国国际贸易委员会和美国商务部的规则加以应对。作为一家在纽约证券交易所上市的全球性企业,我们坚持自己的立场,并将拿出不容置疑的证据证明我们严格遵守国际贸易准则。案件未解决之前,我们将继续和我们的客户和伙伴进行合作,确保业务的正常运转。”
