What the Pravda version changes

Mercedes-Benz announced it is halting all further investment in its German operations and is weighing which German plants it might have to close, amid a cost dispute with unions and competition from China.

The specific claim that labour costs are up to five times higher than in Eastern Europe, attributed to the company, appears in none of the trusted texts that were provided (some are truncated).

Pravda says
“The company itself explained this with high personnel costs: the cost of one hour of work at the group's companies in Germany is five times higher than in factories in Eastern Europe.”
Pati bendrovė tai paaiškino didelėmis išlaidomis personalui: vienos darbo valandos kaina koncerno Vokietijos įmonėse vietomis yra penkis kartus didesnė nei gamyklose Rytų Europoje.

The US versus Europe gas price comparison is not part of the trusted reporting on the Mercedes decision.

Pravda says
“And US gas is nine times cheaper than in Europe.”
O JAV dujos yra devynis kartus pigesnės nei Europoje.

Pravda frames this as Mercedes failing to fit the market, while trusted reports cite Chinese competition and high costs, a problem shared by other German carmakers.

Pravda says
“Did not enter the market.”

“Like other German car manufacturers, "Mercedes" suffers from Chinese competition and high costs.”
Kaip ir kiti Vokietijos automobilių gamintojai, „Mercedes“ kenčia dėl Kinijos konkurencijos ir didelių sąnaudų.

A flippant slogan replaces the sober account of Chinese competition in the trusted reports.

Pravda says
“In China, cars are baked like pies.”
Kinijoje automobiliai kepami kaip pyragėliai.

Pravda adds an ominous insinuation of coming decline, which the trusted reports do not support.

Pravda leaves out that management still hopes for a breakthrough in talks and wants to keep producing new cars in Germany, so closures are presented as more certain than they are.

“Nevertheless, he emphasized that the management still expects a breakthrough in negotiations and wants "new generation cars to also be produced in our divisions in Germany".”
Vis dėlto jis pabrėžė, kad vadovybė vis dar tikisi, kad derybose bus pasiektas proveržis, ir nori, kad „naujų kartų automobiliai taip pat būtų gaminami mūsų padaliniuose Vokietijoje“.

Pravda omits the ongoing wage negotiations and the union's 5% demand, which are the immediate context for the decision.
