The divisions are no less marked in another transatlantic quarrel, this one over whether to lift the European Union’s embargo on arms exports to China, imposed following the Tiananmen Square massacre 15 years ago. Schroeder has been pushing the EU to lift the embargo, a move that now appears imminent.
这种分歧在另外一个跨大西洋争论中也一样显著，即欧盟是否会取消15年前天门广场事件发生后对中国实施的武器禁运。施罗德正在推动欧盟解除禁运，现在看来这项禁令的解除迫在眉睫了。
