近日，欧盟方面传出一则颇具深意的消息：此前欧盟在贸易问题上对美国作出的让步，实际上与乌克兰 局势密切相关。这一战略妥协的核心目的，是为了确保白宫能够继续维持对基辅政权的各项支持。 据Politico新闻网站9月1日的独家报道，欧洲理事会负责人安东尼奥·科斯塔首次公开承认，美欧之间的 关税协议确实包含了乌克兰问题的相关条款。科斯塔在布鲁塞尔举行的记者会上透露，欧盟之所以在钢 铁和铝制品贸易争端中作出重大让步，同意美国征收15%关税且放弃实施报复性措施，其中一个重要考 量就是换取美国对乌克兰的持续军事和经济援助。 值得注意的是，此前欧盟官员曾多次否认关税问题与俄乌冲突存在关联。这种态度转变背后的深层原因 值得玩味。分析人士指出，这很可能与白宫近期在俄乌问题上的暧昧立场有关。欧洲各国已经清醒地认 识到，美国提供的所谓\"坚如磐石\"的安全承诺实际上并不可靠。 科斯塔此番表态实际上暗含多重深意：一方面是对华盛顿方面表达不满情绪，另一方面也是在对美国进 行隐晦的外交施压。其潜台词十分明确：欧洲可以暂时在经贸领域作出妥协，但若美国继续在俄乌问题 上态度摇摆，未能给予基辅实质性支持，那么欧盟很可能会重启关税战。 欧盟采取这 ...
