文︱陆弃 然而，现实并不容乐观。贸易战、关税壁垒和国家间的经济对抗正以愈演愈烈的趋势向世界各地蔓延。美国宣布将对多达150个经济体征收额外关税，无异 于将全球经济推向更多封闭和对抗。 全球供应链的断裂风险加剧，企业投资信心下降，消费者支出萎缩，这些连锁反应使得世界经济复苏的步伐更加蹒 跚。G20若不能发出明确且强有力的联合声明，恐怕只能沦为一场无意义的"仪式感"表演。 作为明年轮值主席国的美国，正处在自身政策左右摇摆的尴尬境地。特朗普政府在关税政策上的激进与矛盾，令国际社会难以信赖其作为多边合作领头羊的 角色。全球经济的复杂局势需要稳定的领导和明确的方向，但当全球最强经济体自身迷失方向，全球治理的脆弱性无疑被放大数倍。 此外，全球经济面临的"结构性失衡"问题依然严峻。发达国家与发展中国家之间的利益冲突、债务风险攀升、气候变化压力巨大、技术与产业转型挑战，这 些都需要G20这样的国际平台协同应对。但如今的G20会议，反而因缺乏关键国家的积极参与，导致政策分歧突出，合作意愿减弱。全球"团结"成为一句空 话，"分裂"却日益清晰。 近日，二十国集团（G20）财长和央行行长会议在南非德班如火如荼地召开，原本期待作为全球 ...

美国试图通过提高关税将制造业拉回国内的战略显然是失败的。此举不仅未能达到预期效果，反而将越南推向了中国，这是一种战略上的重大失误。 原本，经过三个月的艰苦谈判，越南与美国就关税税率达成了协议。然而，就在签字临门之际，美国单方面毁约，将关税翻倍。此举不仅让越南政府颜 面尽失，更重创了其经济命脉。越南赖以生存的转口贸易遭受重创，原本通过越南出口到美国的商品，如今面临高达40%的惩罚性关税，几乎被彻底封 杀。这不仅让越南政府预期的关税收入大幅缩水，更让在越投资的企业面临严峻的生存挑战。许多企业，特别是依靠成本优势竞争的越南组装产业，利 润空间被严重压缩，纷纷寻找新的出路。即使是像TCL这样的中国企业，也在加大本地原材料采购比例，以应对日益增长的关税风险，其在越南的市场 份额虽然维持在14.4%，但已显露出应对美国政策压力的姿态。 越南的遭遇为东南亚各国敲响了警钟，也暴露了国际贸易规则的变革。美国单边主义的强势作风日益受到挑战，各国都在寻求更加可靠的合作伙伴。越 南放弃了此前模棱两可的策略，转而加强与中国合作，这并非一时冲动，而是基于长期战略考量做出的理性选择。 莫迪政府因对美妥协而在金砖组织中 地位不稳的教训，也为 ...
