美国总统特朗普此前在社交媒体上宣布，决定对越南商品实施20%到40%的关税。具体来说，这20%的 税率是针对直接从越南输入的产品，而40%则是针对那些经越南转口的商品。值得注意的是，特朗普并 没有详细解释什么算是转口商品，这也使得不少分析人士对此产生了困惑。自从特朗普宣布与越南达成 贸易谈判协议以来，越南方面至今未公布该协议的具体内容，以及美国对其产品所适用的税率，这也引 来了外界对两国协议的质疑。同时，特朗普表示，越南承诺对美国产品实行零关税，这无疑让美国在某 种程度上占据了优势。 如今，根据外媒的报道，越南似乎在谈判中被美国所欺骗。在美国与越南的谈判期间，越南最初预计美 国会同意11%的税率，认为这对于自身是可接受的。然而，从特朗普的最新表态来看，实际税率几乎翻 了一番，达到了20%。美国媒体曝出内幕，称特朗普在最后时刻的这一决定是"临门一脚"。事实上，在 4月2日时，美国本有计划对越南征收高达46%的关税，而越南第一时间做出了零关税的承诺，但最终的 税率仍然超过了越南的预期。 即使美国在对待其盟友时表现出这种强硬态度，欧盟却似乎已经开始屈服，试图在数字问题上向美国让 步，以换取对自身的关税减免。从关税的 ...

根据美国商务部的数据，他们与巴西的贸易顺差明显，按理应当维持现状。然而，特朗普却无视经济利 益，担心其他国家的团结会对美元构成挑战。此次巴西的反击成为了一个典型的案例，若更多国家效 仿，美国的关税政策将面临全面的失效。 最近，美国突如其来地针对巴西加征了50%的关税，这一举动显得非常不寻常。面对这一挑衅，巴西总 统卢拉立即采取了对等的反击策略，同样对美国的商品征收了50%的关税。不仅如此，韩国和日本也遭 遇了美国加征25%关税的困扰，而韩国还被要求支付100亿美元的军费。美国在与巴西的贸易中本是获 利的，但现在却选择对立，这背后显然隐藏着不为人知的动机。 7月9日，美国贸易代表发布公告，针对八个国家实施关税政策，巴西成为了重点攻击的对象。特朗普政 府或许认为，巴西在金砖国家峰会上表现得太过活跃，尤其是卢拉公开表示"世界不需要皇帝"，这显然 是针对美国的强硬言辞。在金砖国家会议上，巴西提议减少对美元的依赖，这一想法直接威胁到了美国 在全球的霸权地位。 那么，巴西此次敢于强硬反击的底气从何而来？首先，他们拥有丰富的石油、铁矿等自然资源，市场也 相当广阔。此外，金砖国家之间的互相支持意味着，尽管美国加税，巴西仍然能 ...

据新华社报道，近期中美经贸磋商机制首次会议在英国伦敦举行。在此背景下，特朗普刚对华示好，国 际局势却风云突变。 当地时间7月16日，特朗普在签署"全面遏制芬太尼贩运法案"前，谈及芬太尼问题时称中方一直在该问 题上帮助美国。而此前，特朗普曾借芬太尼问题对中国发起关税威胁，态度可谓180度大转弯。不仅如 此，近段时间美国在芯片出口等问题上对中国松口，恢复处理中国留学生赴美签证、准许美国能源企业 对华出口乙烷、撤销对华芯片设计软件出口许可证要求等。 冯德莱恩（资料图） 特朗普态度转变，主要是因为美国在对华关税战中并未占到便宜。一方面，美国国内企业因关税成本上 升，经营压力增大，不少企业呼吁缓和对华关系。另一方面，美国在国际上的贸易伙伴也对其关税政策 心生不满，美国的国际经济环境有所恶化。特朗普政府意识到，一味强硬难以达到目的，开始寻求与中 国的合作契机，为后续的经贸谈判等创造有利条件。 特朗普宣布自8月1日起对欧盟加征30%的关税，本以为能让欧盟服软。可欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩迅速 回应，宣布欧盟与印尼签订了自由贸易协定。印尼作为金砖组织重要成员国，与欧盟达成自贸协定，无 疑在特朗普的贸易战略布局上撕开一道口子。欧盟 ...

【文/观察者网 王一】美欧关税谈判陷入僵局，为了不在8月1日被美国总统特朗普强征关税，欧盟打算 在其重点产品汽车上退一步。据英国《金融时报》7月17日报道，针对汽车关税减免，欧盟打算放弃德 国汽车制造商提出的复杂的"出口抵消进口机制"设想，转而向美国提出一个更为简单的"关税对关税"方 案。 根据欧盟最新提案，如果特朗普政府将对欧盟汽车的关税降至20%以下，欧盟将取消对美国汽车出口的 10%关税。 《金融时报》指出，这是欧盟为与美国特朗普政府尽快达成协议、解决最大绊脚石，稳定双方经贸关系 所作出的最新努力。 汽车行业是德国经济的支柱，特朗普关税将对其造成沉重打击。在德国汽车制造商的施压下，德国总理 默茨推动欧盟拿上述方案与特朗普团队谈判。但这在欧盟内部引发了一些不满声，法国、意大利等其他 成员国认为这一机制对他们国家的车企不利，因为他们在美国没有设立工厂。 新车停放在德国的一个物流中心里等待出口。视频截图 宝马集团董事长齐普策称，"在我们的讨论中，我认为我们走了很长一段路来明确表示：如果你危及那 个（出口）模式......美国会输"。 沃尔沃汽车首席执行官（CEO）哈坎·萨缪尔森（Hkan Samuelsson ...
