据上观新闻报道，先前特朗普政府对全球贸易伙伴加征所谓"对等关税"。特别是在对华贸易上，以所谓中国对美拥有 大量货物贸易顺差为借口，累计加征关税率高达145%、单项加税更是达到245%，这一行为引起了国际社会的一片哗 然。对此，中方果断采取反制措施，并发布了《关于中美经贸关系若干问题的中方立场》白皮书。由此，也揭开了美 国"贸易吃亏论"的真面目。 特朗普关税战可以追溯到其第一任期对中国发动的贸易战。当时，他指责中国对美国有大量贸易顺差，要求中国多购 买美国产品，并对中国输美产品加征20-25%的关税。事实上，由于害怕中国购买高档芯片等"技术产品"之后更快实现 中国制造的升级换代，美国政府一直限制技术产品的对华出口。特朗普政府要求中国购买更多美国农产品和能源，但 美国与出口这类产品的资源大国相比并无价格竞争优势。可以说，正是美国扭曲的贸易政策导致了美中贸易的严重不 平衡。 特朗普（资料图） 就算特朗普屡次翻炒中美贸易逆差、称巨大的贸易顺差让美方吃了个大亏，但不可否认的是，在商品出口领域，2024 年美国对华商品出口总额约为1407亿美元，规模不可谓不大。然而现在这些商品均面临中国至少125%的关税，完全卖 不到中 ...

在国际政治经济舞台上，美国的一举一动都备受瞩目。近期，美国在经贸、国内政治与社会、国际事务等多方面呈现出一系列新动向，这些动向不仅深刻影 响着美国自身的发展轨迹，也对全球格局产生着重要的外溢效应。 经贸领域：关税调整与经济政策博弈 中美经贸关系的微妙变化 近期，中美经贸关系成为全球焦点。5 月 10 日，两国代表在瑞士日内瓦重启关税谈判，这一谈判被外界视为 "全球贸易秩序分水岭"。美方抛出 "将关税从 145% 降至 80%" 的方案，然而附加条件却直指中国核心利益，包括全面开放市场、解除稀土出口管制、强化芬太尼管控等。这种 "降关税当恩赐，换实质 主权让步" 的逻辑，被美国智库彼得森研究所直言 "荒谬"。从数据来看，即便美方将关税降至 80%，中国光伏、机械、纺织等行业的综合成本仍将高出国际 均价 37%，而美国对华出口的半导体设备、大豆等商品却要求零关税准入 ，这种 "单行道" 式要价难以撼动中方立场。 在谈判前，美国还接连与英国、印度达成贸易协议。英国以消除市场壁垒、扩大进口美国农产品为代价，换取维持 10% 的基础关税；印度则承诺对 90% 美 国商品实施低关税，将两国平均关税差从 13% 压缩至 4 ...

同样，中美联合声明文本也体现了中国没有在原则立场上退让半步。根据声明，美方共取消了共计91% 的加征关税，中方相应取消了91%的反制关税；美方暂停实施24%的"对等关税"，中方也相应暂停实施 24%的反制关税。 可见，谈判不可能在美方无端加征关税的基础上进行，敦促美方纠正错误，这正是中国在对美谈判中设 定的前提。 此外，中美经贸磋商机制的建立，也为减少美方在后续经贸谈判的多变性 、反复性建立了一种宽约束 机制，有助于增强中美基本互信。 事实证明，尽管中美在多领域多层次都有竞争，但仍可以做到相互尊重、互利合作。中美联合声明的发 布，就是中美相向而行迈出的重要一步。 据新华社报道，5月12日，中美发布了日内瓦经贸会谈联合声明。 声明表示，中美双方承诺将于2025年5月14日前采取举措：美方暂停对中国商品（含港澳）原加征的 24%关税（为期90天），保留10%关税；同时取消第14259号、14266号行政令的额外关税。中方相应调 整对美商品加征的24%关税（暂停90天），保留10%关税，并取消第5号、6号税委会公告的加征措施。 声明还表示，双方将建立机制，继续就经贸关系进行协商。协商可在中国、美国，或双方商定的第三 ...

据新华社北京5月6日报道，2025年5月6日是中国和欧盟建交50周年纪念日。外交部发言人林剑6日表示，今年中欧之间有很多重要议程。中方欢迎欧洲理事 会主席科斯塔、欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩适时联袂来华举行新一次中欧领导人会晤，双方还将举行战略、经贸、绿色、数字等高层对话。林剑表示，1975年 5月，时任国务院总理周恩来同来访的欧洲经济共同体委员会副主席索姆斯爵士举行会见，宣布中欧建交的决定，这是当时国际关系中的一件大事。 万斯（资料图） 很显然中欧之间的关系在最近一段时间突飞猛进，双方加强了合作，取消了以前的一些交往限制。中欧关系为什么会发展如此迅速？这其实还要感谢特朗普 带来的助攻。今年特朗普对全世界掀起了所谓的"关税战"，欧洲这些美国的传统盟友也没有幸免，反而是被特朗普重点招呼，不但要加关税还要加保护费。 在这种背景之下，欧洲能够怎么办？束手就擒，坐以待毙吗？显然不是，但他们需要同行者。而放眼全世界，能够顶住美国关税压力，能够弥补丢失的美国 市场的地方，就只有一中国。 中国和欧盟都是美国单边主义的受害者，这一点并不是现在才出现的，在过去几年里表现得非常明显，特朗普的第一个任期，以及拜登的任期，都对欧洲进 行了 ...
