German Chancellor Olaf Scholz Calls Arson Attack On Tesla's Giga Berlin A 'Terrorist Act,' Wants EV Giant's Factory To Grow Like Ford's 93-Year-Old Cologne Plant
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz supports the expansion of Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:TSLA) Gigafactory in Berlin, despite ongoing protests by environmentalists and local citizens.
德國總理奧拉夫·舒爾茨支持特斯拉公司的擴張。”s（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）柏林的超級工廠，儘管環保人士和當地公民持續抗議。
What Happened: In an interview with the German newspaper Märkische Allgemeine, Scholz expressed his desire for Tesla to develop in Brandenburg like how Ford did in Cologne. He cited the Ford Cologne plant, which opened in 1931, as producing vehicles for the entire European market, expressing hope for a parallel trajectory for Tesla in Brandenburg.
發生了什麼：在接受德國報紙《Marürkische Allgemeine》採訪時，舒爾茨表示希望特斯拉像福特在科隆那樣在勃蘭登堡發展。他列舉了1931年開業的福特科隆工廠爲整個歐洲市場生產汽車，並表示希望特斯拉在勃蘭登堡能夠走上類似的軌道。
During the interview, Scholz also condemned the recent arson attack on the Tesla factory, labeling it a "terrorist act." The arson, which occurred in early March, resulted in a power outage and halted production for about a week. The attack was claimed by a far-left activist organization known as the Vulkan Group.
在採訪中，舒爾茨還譴責了最近對特斯拉工廠的縱火襲擊，稱其爲 “恐怖行爲”。縱火發生在三月初，導致停電並使生產中斷了大約一週。這次襲擊是由一個名爲Vulkan集團的極左翼激進組織宣稱的。
"That was a terrorist act," said Scholz. "Police and security authorities must do everything they can to identify the perpetrators and bring them to justice." The chancellor also called for increased protection of vital facilities across Germany, including defenses against cyberattacks.
舒爾茨說：“那是一起恐怖行爲。”“警察和安全部門必須盡一切努力查明肇事者並將他們繩之以法。”這位總理還呼籲加強對德國各地重要設施的保護，包括防禦網絡攻擊。
Why It Matters: On Thursday, it was reported that Tesla CEO Elon Musk asked Brandenburg politicians that the arsonists be captured.
爲何重要：週四有報道稱，特斯拉首席執行官埃隆·馬斯克要求勃蘭登堡政客抓捕縱火犯。
Tesla's gigafactory in Berlin is its only factory in Europe. As per the company's 2023 annual report, the factory currently has an installed annual vehicle capacity of 375,000 Model Y vehicles.
特斯拉在柏林的超級工廠是其在歐洲的唯一工廠。根據該公司的2023年年度報告，該工廠目前的年裝機容量爲37.5萬輛Model Y汽車。
The company is currently looking to expand the plant to increase its capacity for battery production to 100-gigawatt hours and car production to 1 million units annually.
該公司目前正在尋求擴建該工廠，將其電池產能提高到100千兆瓦時，將汽車產量提高到每年100萬輛。
Tesla representatives have largely discarded the protests against the factory's proposed expansion claiming that they stem from misinformation. Tesla executive Rohan Patel said last month that the company will continue with its expansion efforts while also working with the community and stakeholders.
特斯拉代表基本上放棄了針對該工廠擴建提議的抗議活動，聲稱這些抗議活動源於錯誤信息。特斯拉高管羅漢·帕特爾上個月表示，該公司將繼續進行擴張工作，同時還將與社區和利益相關者合作。
