論外資安全審查與國際投資條約的銜接

The Convergence between Foreign Investment Security Review and International Investment Treati

外資安全審查可能違反東道國對外國投資者承擔的保護義務，而國際投資條約中的根本安全例外條款未必能完全排除外資安全審查的違法性。為合理地弱化外資安全審查的不確定性，實現投資開放與國家安全之間的平衡，銜接外資安全審查與國際投資條約可以從外國投資治理、可持續安全和區域安全法治合作等方面著手進行。統籌推進國內法治和涉外法治是我國新發展階段法治建設的重要內容，我國應綜合運用國內法、國際條約和區域規則，構建外資安全審查與國際投資條約銜接協調的規則體系和爭端解決機制。

When the state has signed international investment treaties, its foreign investment security review may violate the state’s obligation to protect foreign investors, but the essential security exception clause in investment treaties may not completely exclude the illegality of foreign investment security review. To reasonably weaken the uncertainty of foreign investment security review and achieve the balance between investment openness and national security, the connection of foreign investment security review with international investment treaties can be innovated by combining foreign investment governance, sustainable security, and regional security and legal cooperation. Taking a coordinated approach to domestic rule of law and foreign-related rule of law is an important part of the rule of law construction in China’s new development stage. Thus, China should make comprehensive use of domestic laws, international treaties and regional rules to build the system of rules and dispute resolution mechanism for the convergence and coordination of foreign investment security review and international investment treaties.
