2012年10月中美两国重启双边投资条约(BIT)谈判。目前,双方已基本达成共识的主要条款包括序言、投资者的范围、最惠国待遇、公正与公平待遇、间接征收和拒绝授惠条款。双方的分歧集中在国民待遇、业绩要求、劳工与环保标准,以及投资者与东道国争端解决机制中的若干条款。其中,分歧最大也是最难解决的是国民待遇问题。作者针对这些分歧提出了有建设性的解决方案,并认为,双方通过谈判和妥协达成的BIT将对世界投资条约法制产生重要影响。
In October 2012, China and the United States resumed negotiations on a bilateral investment treaty (BIT). At present, the two sides have basically reached consensus on the main terms include the preamble, the scope of investors, most-favored-nation treatment, fair and equitable treatment, indirect collection and refusal of terms. The differences between the two parties focused on national treatment, performance requirements, labor and environmental standards, and a number of provisions in the dispute settlement mechanism between investors and host countries. Among them, the biggest and most difficult one is the national treatment. The authors propose constructive solutions to these differences and believe BITs reached through negotiation and compromise will have a significant impact on the legal framework for the world investment treaty.
