欧盟议会贸易委员会主席贝恩德·朗格（Bernd Lange）称，特朗普的做法体现了"美国总统帝国主义的新维度"，对欧洲是"难以置信的冒犯"。他强调欧盟现 在必须明确立场，并认为欧盟可能会动用所谓的"反强制措施法"进行反制措施，包括关税、暂停专利许可、禁止参与公共招标以及其他措施。 德国机械设备制造业联合会（VDMA）主席伯特伦·卡瓦拉斯（Bertram Kawlath）表示，如果欧盟在此事上让步，只会促使特朗普提出"下一个荒谬的要 求"。他还强调，只要华盛顿方面继续通过新的惩罚性关税向欧盟施压，欧洲议会就不可能就削减对美国的关税做出决定。 德国工商总会（DIHK）对外贸易专家沃尔克·特雷尔（Volker Treier）表示，特朗普"极具争议的政治目标"，正以一种"不可接受"的方式与经济制裁挂钩。 【文/观察者网 潘昱辰 编辑/高莘】据德意志广播电台、北德广播电台、路透社等媒体报道，对美国总统特朗普计划利用关税向丹麦施压、迫使其出售格陵 兰岛的做法，欧洲最大经济体德国的政界和工商界普遍表示愤怒，并呼吁欧洲不要屈服于他的要求。 政工商界集体抗议 1月17日，特朗普宣布从2月开始对反对其控制格陵兰岛的国家征收10% ...

Core Viewpoint - The article argues that calls for the rapid appreciation of the Renminbi (RMB) by Western institutions, including the IMF, may have adverse effects on Western economies and could lead to increased social instability. Instead of pushing for a quick appreciation, Western advocates should appreciate China's strategy of maintaining RMB stability [1][6][10]. Group 1: RMB Appreciation Pressure - Western economies, particularly the U.S., have long pressured China to appreciate its currency, viewing it as a solution to trade imbalances. This perspective is rooted in neoclassical economic theory, which suggests that RMB appreciation would make Chinese exports more expensive and reduce trade surpluses [1][6]. - The IMF's annual report suggests measures to promote RMB appreciation and reduce China's current account surplus, indicating ongoing pressure for a more market-oriented exchange rate [5][9]. Group 2: Foreign Value Added (FVA) Mechanism - China's export model is deeply integrated into global value chains, with a significant portion of export value derived from imported intermediate goods. This creates a paradox where RMB appreciation could lower the cost of these imports, potentially enhancing the competitiveness of Chinese exporters [7][8]. - The OECD's TiVA database shows that in key export sectors like electronics (35-42%), machinery (30-37%), and chemicals (25-41%), FVA remains high, indicating reliance on imported inputs [7]. Group 3: Asymmetric Impact on the U.S. Economy - The article highlights that while RMB appreciation may provide a buffer for Chinese exporters, the U.S. economy lacks similar protections, leading to increased input costs without offsetting benefits. This dynamic could exacerbate inflation and widen the trade deficit for U.S. companies [11][12]. - U.S. manufacturing, which relies heavily on domestic content (85-90%), faces challenges as imported intermediate goods become more expensive without equivalent cost relief [11][12]. Group 4: RMB Internationalization and Strategic Implications - The ongoing internationalization of the RMB adds a strategic dimension to the appreciation paradox, allowing China to insulate key markets from exchange rate fluctuations while enhancing its competitiveness. By 2025, RMB settlements in cross-border transactions are expected to exceed 50% [16][19]. - The increasing use of RMB in trade with countries in the Global South provides a buffer against the adverse effects of appreciation, allowing Chinese exporters to maintain stable income while insulating buyers from price increases [22][23]. Group 5: Conclusion on RMB Appreciation Calls - The article concludes that calls for rapid RMB appreciation may inadvertently strengthen China's export position rather than achieve the intended rebalancing of trade. The structural differences between the Chinese and U.S. economies amplify the risks of adverse effects on Western interests [24].
