新华社海牙6月25日电 综述｜北约峰会：象征性的共识 盖不住的矛盾 舆论普遍认为，本次峰会象征意义大于实际内容。欧洲各国在美国政府孤立主义倾向日益明显、本国财 政资源日益窘迫的背景下，要大幅提升军费，不仅面临额外经济负担，也势必引发更多内部矛盾。 匈牙利总理欧尔班25日在出席峰会期间表示，欧洲当前面临的最大威胁并非军事或安全问题，而是在全 球贸易中"失去竞争力"。 荷兰银行经济学家迪维尼指出，3.5%的核心军费支出目标"对大多数北约成员国而言非常不现实，许多 成员国连目前的2%标准都难以达到"。 荷兰最大养老金管理机构APG资产管理公司首席经济学家泰斯·克纳普指出，欧洲国家若要将国防开支 提升至国内生产总值的5%，无非两条路径：要么大幅削减医疗、社会保障和养老金等公共支出，要么 通过加税筹措资金。无论哪条路径，都可能引发社会强烈反弹。 尽管如此，在峰会前的紧急磋商中，西班牙还是坚决反对将军费目标提升至5%，直到最后关头才勉强 接受峰会宣言文本，使得宣言得以通过。西班牙明确表示，仅承诺将国防开支提高至国内生产总值的 2.1%。 比利时、斯洛伐克等国也对过高的军费目标表达担忧，认为短期内难以承受。而特朗普则称，美 ...

在夏季达沃斯论坛上，全球角色中不再独一无二的美国成为热议话题，甚至拥有专场的讨论时间。 但真正引发共鸣的，并不止于台上的讨论议程，而是会场内外专家学者反复提及的一组关键词：滞胀、 孤立、债务。 关税政策加大滞胀风险。 4月以来，美国对多国加征所谓"对等关税"，这一试图"让美国再次伟大"的举措，在多位夏季达沃斯论 坛与会者看来，更可能拉高通胀，拖累增长。 中国国际经济交流中心(CCIEE)资深专家委委员、世界经济论坛董事会成员朱民向三里河表示，关税政 策将直接导致美国物价攀升，这一影响预计在5 - 6个月后逐步显现。美联储预计关税对美国物价影响将 在数月后进一步加剧。 与此同时，关税或导致美国经济增长陷入停滞。 美利坚大学高级讲师罗伯特·库普曼结合自身研究提出，美国关税税率每提高5% -10%，预计其GDP增速 将相应放缓0.25%-0.75%。 "我从美国企业那里听到的大多是担忧之声。"彭博社高级编辑斯泰西·瓦内克·史密斯说。 为保住客户，许多美国企业选择自行消化关税，经营成本骤升。而若制造业一旦大规模回迁，美国还将 面临劳动力紧张、成本上升等挑战。 6月24日至26日，世界经济论坛第十六届新领军者年会(20 ...

【环球时报综合报道】编者的话： 美国总统特朗普6月23日宣布以色列和伊朗已就"全面彻底停火"达成 一致，此次停火能否持续尚不得而知，但近期围绕美国对伊政策暴露出的共和党内部分歧仍将持续。欧 美多家媒体表示，共和党内一些对伊强硬派在推动美国空袭伊朗核设施方面扮演了重要角色，而这一行 动遭到该党很多信奉"让美国再次伟大"（MAGA）人士的强烈反对。不少媒体将前一群体称为"战争鹰 派"，将后一群体称为"MAGA孤立主义者"，两派争相游说特朗普，以影响华盛顿对伊政策。 " 显然有人想游说对伊进行袭击 " 路透社6月19日发表的一篇报道，通过对十几名美国匿名官员、外国外交官等的采访，介绍了特朗普再 次上台以来对伊政策是如何变化的。文章称，在上任前几个月，特朗普虽然不坚决反对对伊动武，但更 倾向于通过外交途径与德黑兰就核问题达成协议。然而，6月21日，美国却出动B－2轰炸机实施名 为"午夜之锤"的袭击计划，对伊朗3处核设施进行轰炸。 据美国"政治新闻网"、Mediaite新闻网等媒体报道，特朗普之所以改变对伊政策，可能是受到多重因素 的影响，其中之一便是共和党内一些对伊强硬派的游说。这些强硬派被一些媒体称为"战争鹰派"， ...

国际观察室 -中东局势新变化和风险 20250618 摘要 内塔尼亚胡面临政治压力，可能通过转移矛盾稳固权力，导致以色列持 续对中东什叶派抵抗力量进行军事打击，但国内防御准备不足。 美国主要提供后勤支持，包括情报共享和空中加油，增强以色列军事行 动效果，但避免直接军事介入，战略重心在于亚太地区。 伊朗发射约 370 枚弹道导弹反击，但多数被美以防空系统拦截，效果有 限，若冲突升级，以色列或需更多美国支持。 以色列空袭削弱伊朗反击能力，摧毁大量导弹发射车及空军设施，加之 经济制裁，伊朗处境艰难。 伊朗反击目标选择克制，可能寄希望于美国调停，但重启谈判所需筹码 将远高于冲突前，包括放弃核能力和裁军。 伊朗福尔多地下核设施未被摧毁，仍是重要谈判筹码。美国虽不允许伊 朗拥核，但避免深度卷入中东冲突，战略重心在亚太。 特朗普对伊朗问题态度投机，约束以色列避免局势升级，同时施压伊朗 谈判，但可能因国内主战派压力而直接介入，原油价格已受影响。 Q&A 以色列在当前中东局势中的立场和行动策略是什么？ 以色列作为冲突的发起者，其立场和行动策略主要基于外部和内部两方面的考 虑。外部方面，以色列试图毁灭伊朗的核武器能力，并削弱伊朗 ...
