美欧关税战升级，欧洲经济如何应对挑战？

Group 1 - The recent joint statement between the US and EU indicates an agreement on trade framework, but high tariffs continue to cast a shadow over the European economy [1][3] - The US will impose tariffs of up to 15% on most EU goods, affecting key export products such as automobiles, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and timber [3][4] - In June, Eurozone exports fell significantly, with exports to the US dropping over 10% year-on-year, reflecting the impact of US tariff measures [3][4] Group 2 - The Eurozone's trade surplus has sharply decreased, with exports declining by 2.4% month-on-month in June while imports increased by over 3%, leading to a drop in trade surplus from €15.6 billion in May to €2.8 billion [3][4] - The automotive industry is under significant pressure due to high tariffs, with German and French car manufacturers heavily reliant on the US market [4][5] - The metal industry is also struggling, facing a 50% tariff on steel and aluminum products, resulting in reduced orders from major exporting countries like Germany and Italy [4][5] Group 3 - European companies are actively seeking strategies to cope with high tariffs, including price increases to pass costs onto consumers and expanding local production to mitigate tariff risks [4][5] - Some small and medium exporters are shifting their market focus to Southeast Asia and the Middle East to reduce dependence on the US, although this transition poses challenges [5] - The Eurozone's industrial output fell by 1.3% month-on-month in June, indicating pressure on the manufacturing sector, which could impact investment and employment in export-dependent countries like Germany and the Netherlands [5]
