所有人都没有预料到，欧盟这个在国际贸易中常常"骑墙"的角色，竟然成为特朗普这次贸易战的最大输家，甚至最终遭到了"制裁"。根据昨晚的最新消息， 美国总统特朗普宣布，自8月1日起对欧盟和墨西哥征收高达30%的关税。这一消息一经传出，立刻引发了全球范围内的强烈反响。 在几天前，欧盟与美国的谈判进展已有所披露，当时欧盟在谈判中做出了相当大的让步，最终美国承诺对欧盟仅征收10%的对等关税，部分领域如汽车、药 品和航空航天等则加征25%的关税。然而，令所有人大跌眼镜的是，特朗普这次直接将税率从原本的10%提升至30%，这一变动远远超出了所有人的预期。 稍微算一算，欧盟征收的30%关税，与美国对中国征收的34%关税几乎持平。对此，欧盟感到震惊，甚至难以分辨自己到底是美国的盟友，还是中国才是。 那么，欧盟的27个成员国面对这一局面，是选择屈服妥协，还是像中国一样与美国展开激烈的对抗？这是否意味着新一轮的欧美贸易战即将爆发？接下来， 我们将探讨这个问题。写这篇文章并不容易，欢迎大家点赞、转发和收藏。 那么，特朗普为何对欧盟下如此狠手呢？从特朗普的角度来看，欧盟并非是美国的"商业盟友"，而恰恰是美国经济的一大威胁。虽然美国市场一 ...
