最近，中美双方的第三轮贸易磋商落下帷幕，但结果却并不尽如人意，尤其在关税问题上，双方始终未能达成一致意见。据悉，美国计划实施的对等关税政 策将在24小时内生效，也就是说，如果在这段时间内未能与美国进行有效沟通，相关政策将正式启动。但值得注意的是，中国在这一局势中却显得有些例 外。此前的会谈中，美国方面曾表示愿意延迟政策的实施，但具体的延迟时间尚未确定，这就意味着美国留出最大的余地给中国，而中国也肯定会全力应 对。那么，接下来的局势将如何演变呢？ 进入七月，特朗普显然变得更加忙碌。自从他签署对等关税的行政令以来，相关延期的期限也快到点了。为了避免影响到国家利益，许多国家都在加快与美 国的谈判步伐，试图寻找到一个平衡点。根据媒体的报道，目前美国已与其主要盟友达成了基本的协议框架，接下来只需着手处理一些细节问题。 当然，不是所有国家都有能力进行如此精准有效的反制。印度曾试图效法中国采取反制措施，自认作为大国的他们可以获得与美国谈判的筹码。然而，印度 发现自己并没有让美国忌惮的资本，无非是寄希望于与特朗普的个人友谊，希望能因此获得一些优待。而现实却给了他们一记响亮的耳光，特朗普如若在乎 与外国领导人的关系，就不会推行 ...

特朗普在美国东部时间7月31日（北京时间8月1日）签署的总统令中，设定了对等关税的新 税率。此前只有全部国家或地区一律为10%的基本税率。自8月7日起，对约70个国家或地区 征收10%～41%的对等关税。 对日本关税为15%。由于美国对几乎所有进口汽车征收25%税率的汽车关税，虽然日本与美 国就下调至12.5%达成协议，但并未写入总统令。由于日美协议的税率与对等关税的法律依 据不同，实施时间尚不清楚。 美国总统特朗普已决定提高对世界各国征收的对等关税。特朗普挥舞着高关税的大棒，以力 量强迫各国开放市场和增加对美投资。随着作为最大经济大国的美国背弃自由贸易，世界进 入了被迫与强权支配的新经济秩序对峙的时代。 特朗普在美东7月31日签署的总统令中，设定了对等关税的新税率。高关税扰乱了世界，但给美国带来 了税收增加这一好处。统计显示，仅对等关税的10%部分，截至7月13日的税收就达到221亿美元…… 自1995年世界贸易组织（WTO）成立以来，美国的有效关税税率基本低于3%。一系列关税 上调的措施很可能使有效关税税率达到与第二次世界大战前相同的水平。如果超过20%，则 可以追溯到第一次世界大战前的水平。 特朗普政府 ...
