特朗普为什么要搞垮美国旅游业?
Hu Xiu· 2025-05-30 00:33
昨天,美国特朗普政府声称将积极地撤销中国学生签证,同时加强审查今后所有来自中国内地和香港的签证申请。 值得一提的是,这倒不仅仅针对中国,美国近期还暂停了对赴美留学、交流的外国公民在海外申请签证需要进行的面谈,并加强对申请者社交媒体帖子的 审查。 风雨欲来,当美国对中国等多个国家逐渐开始"闭关锁国",世界又如何看待今天的美国呢? 近期Skift(美国权威旅游行业新闻网站)做过一份调查报告,当时我还觉得《特朗普政策或将导致美国旅游业衰退》这个标题有点夸张,现在看颇有先见 之明。 01 美国驻华大使馆公众号5月29日截图 从具体调研内容来看,Skift问了来自五个国家的1250名游客:"特朗普执政时期,你们有去美国的旅游计划吗?" 结果,有46%的人当场回答"那不可能"。 更离谱的是,加拿大受访者"不去"的比例是62%,德国人"不去"是59%。 这不是"不想去",而是"躲着走"。 前阵子,我和一个中国工作多年的法国老友聊到今年暑期安排,他也是类似态度,"Xi,我宁可去你们宁夏看沙漠,也不想在纽约机场被问十分钟'你来干 嘛的'。" 听起来像段子,实际上是趋势,而数据也已经开口说话了。 也就是说,美国成了全球184个经 ...
欧洲央行行长:开放正让位于保护主义
news flash· 2025-05-26 18:27
欧洲央行行长拉加德26日在德国柏林参加一场活动时指出,当前的国际秩序正在受到根本性的动摇,多 边合作正在被零和思维与权力博弈所取代。开放正让位于保护主义。拉加德说,欧洲经济深度融入全球 贸易体系,出口占欧洲经济增加值的近五分之一,并支撑着3000万个就业岗位。国际秩序中任何导致世 界贸易下降或经济集团分裂的变化,都将对欧洲经济造成不利影响。但只要采取正确的政策应对,形势 变化也可能为欧元在未来的国际舞台上发挥更大作用提供可能性。拉加德说,美元的主导地位也存在不 确定性。近年来,美元在全球外汇储备中的占比不断下降,目前的占比是1994年以来的最低水平。拉加 德表示,欧元如今是第二大全球货币,占全球外汇储备的20%左右。增强欧元的国际地位将促使更多贸 易以欧元计价,从而令欧洲免受不稳定的资本流动的影响。为提升欧元的全球地位,欧洲需要坚定不移 地致力于开放贸易,巩固经济基础以促进资本市场发展,以及捍卫法治和政治团结。(新华社) ...

“特朗普想全盘赢中国,唯独这个战场主动认输”
Guan Cha Zhe Wang· 2025-05-22 14:36
Core Viewpoint - The Trump administration is shifting its focus away from clean energy competition with China, instead prioritizing traditional energy sources like oil, natural gas, and coal, leading to significant internal divisions within the Republican Party regarding energy policy [1][3]. Group 1: Energy Policy Shifts - The Trump administration's strategy reflects a "zero-sum" mindset, believing that further investment in clean energy would only benefit China, which dominates key segments of the global supply chain for batteries, electric vehicles, solar, and wind energy [3][5]. - In contrast to the first term's broad approach to energy policy, the second term shows a clear preference for fossil fuels, with Trump expressing intentions to repeal parts of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to cut government spending [3][4]. Group 2: Internal Republican Divisions - The proposed "Big Beautiful Bill Act" is causing fundamental disagreements within the Republican Party, particularly between hardliners who want to eliminate clean energy subsidies and moderates who recognize the benefits of these subsidies for their communities [1][7]. - The hardline stance may alienate moderate Republicans, as many of their constituents benefit from the jobs created by clean energy projects supported by the IRA [7][9]. Group 3: Economic Implications - The cancellation of clean energy subsidies could jeopardize approximately 160,000 jobs in the U.S. manufacturing sector, particularly in Republican-majority areas [5][6]. - A study indicates that the elimination of these subsidies could result in the loss of a projected $50 billion solar component and battery export market by 2030, with other countries likely filling the investment gap left by the U.S. [6][9]. Group 4: Global Cooperation and Climate Change - The current U.S. administration's approach is seen as detrimental to global efforts to combat climate change, as it undermines the need for international collaboration [9][10]. - The article emphasizes that addressing climate change requires collective action from all nations, rather than a retreat from engagement due to perceived competition with China [9][10].
