煙草在線據(jù)印尼Tempo雜志報(bào)道編譯　　巴西政府可能會(huì)考慮按一定的條件進(jìn)口印尼丁香卷煙。巴西駐印尼大使Paulo Alberto Soares說，巴西希望與印尼進(jìn)行磋商，解決妨礙雙邊貿(mào)易的問題。

　　2012年5月16日，Paulo Alberto Soares在雅加達(dá)的住處與記者會(huì)面時(shí)說：“我們禁止進(jìn)口丁香煙是出于健康，但無論如何，我們的進(jìn)口量并不大。”

　　他說，丁香煙、薄荷卷煙或丁香味卷煙因它們的致癮特性而被認(rèn)為對健康有害，巴西也在努力減少卷煙消費(fèi)。

　　不過，他相信，如果印尼政府也考慮進(jìn)口巴西產(chǎn)品的話，巴西政府會(huì)重新考慮進(jìn)口丁香煙的問題。

　　他希望向印尼出口牛或牛肉，但印尼政府禁止進(jìn)口這些產(chǎn)品。他解釋說：“我們都在禁止彼此的產(chǎn)品，因此，我們現(xiàn)在必須要做的是進(jìn)行磋商。”

　　他繼續(xù)說，磋商將會(huì)使得兩國政府能夠討論被兩國互相禁止的產(chǎn)品。他補(bǔ)充說，巴西敦促印尼政府開放巴西牛肉進(jìn)口。最近，巴西效仿美國的政策，禁止進(jìn)口被認(rèn)為具有致癮性、能夠抑制吸卷煙的消極影響的丁香煙。實(shí)際上，巴西禁止包括丁香和薄荷在內(nèi)的所有加香卷煙。印尼允許進(jìn)口牛肉，那么我們也會(huì)歡迎印尼的出口產(chǎn)品。他說，許多事情是可以通過協(xié)商解決的。

??? 他說，巴西是世界上最大的牛肉生產(chǎn)國和出口國，但向印尼出口牛肉被2009年的關(guān)于牲畜與動(dòng)物健康的18號法律阻止。這項(xiàng)法律規(guī)定，印尼政府只能從被宣告沒有口蹄疫的國家進(jìn)口牛肉。到目前為止，印尼采取的是以國家為基礎(chǔ)，而不是以地區(qū)為基礎(chǔ)的牛肉與奶牛進(jìn)口制度。

??? 根據(jù)聯(lián)合國的商品貿(mào)易統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)字，印尼在2011年間向巴西的出口價(jià)值達(dá)到19.2億美元，高于其17.2億美元的進(jìn)口價(jià)值。印尼向巴西的出口貿(mào)易主要由制造產(chǎn)品，以及其他的紡織品與鞋類產(chǎn)品構(gòu)成，價(jià)值13.4億美元。

Brazil Interested to Import Kretek Cigarettes with Conditions Attached

　　The Brazilian government could consider reimporting of Indonesian kretek or clove-flavored cigarettes on certain conditions. The Brazilian Ambassador to Indonesia Paulo Alberto Soares said that Brazil wanted to negotiate with Indonesia to address the issues that hampers the bilateral trade.

　　We do ban Kretek imports for health reasons, but our imports were not big anyway,Paulo said in his meeting with reporters at his residence in Jakarta, on May 16, 2012.

　　He said that kretek and menthol cigarettes or clove-flavored cigarettes are considered harmful to health due to their addictive properties, and that Brazil is also making efforts to reduce cigarette consumption.

　　However, he is confident that the Brazilian government would reconsider the import of kretek cigarettes provided the Indonesian government do the same towards Brazilian products.

　　He want to export cows or beef to Indonesia but the government bans the import. We are both banning each others' products, so what we need to do now is negotiate,he explained .

　　The negotiation, he continued, will enable the two governments to discuss the products banned by both countries. Brazil, he added, urges the Indonesian government to open the import of Brazilian beef. Recently Brazil followed the US's policy in prohibiting the import of Kretek which is considered addictive and to be able to suppress negative effects of smoking. Brazil in fact bans all flavored cigarettes including clove and menthol. Indonesia allows the beef import, then we will also welcome Indonesian exports. Many things can be achieved through negotiation,he said.

　　He said that Brazil is the world's largest beef producer and exporter, however, its export to Indonesia has been held back by the Law No. 18 of 2009 regarding Livestock and Animal Health, which stipulates that the government may import beef only from the countries which have been declared free of foot and mouth disease. So far, Indonesia applies a country-based, not zone-based, beef and cow import system.

　　According to UN commodity trade statistics, Indonesia's export to Brazil during 2011 is worth US$1,92 billion, higher than its import worth US$1.72 billion. Indonesia's trade to Brazil primarily comprises export of manufactured products, among others textile and shoes, worth US$ 1,34 billion. Enditem
