美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示,即将到来的“互惠”关税将从最低15%开始,在8月1日的最后期限之前提高新征税的下限。周三,他在华盛顿举行的人工智能峰会上发表讲话时表示,“我们将对15%至50%之间的任何一个国家征收直接、简单的关税”,并补充说,更高的税率适用于美国“相处得不太好”的国家。这些言论标志着向针对几乎所有美国贸易伙伴的更激进的关税政策的转变,除了少数有贸易协议的国家。周二,在东京同意取消对美国商品的限制并支持5500亿美元的投资基金后,特朗普宣布将对日本的25%关税降至15%。包括韩国、印度和欧盟成员国在内的其他国家仍在谈判协议,以避免更高的关税。特朗普指出,与欧盟的谈判是“严肃的”,并强调鉴于涉及的国家数量,需要一个更简单的关税制度。
U.S. President Donald Trump signaled that upcoming "reciprocal" tariffs would start at a minimum of 15%, raising the floor for new levies ahead of an August 1 deadline. Speaking at an AI summit in Washington Wednesday, he said, “We will have a straight, simple tariff of anywhere between 15 percent and 50 percent,” adding that the higher rate applies to countries the U.S. hasn’t “been getting along with too well.” The comments mark a shift toward a more aggressive tariff policy aimed at nearly all U.S. trading partners, except a select few with trade deals. On Tuesday, Trump announced a reduction in a planned 25% tariff on Japan to 15% after Tokyo agreed to lift restrictions on U.S. goods and support a $550 billion investment fund. Other countries, including South Korea, India, and EU members, are still negotiating deals to avoid the higher tariffs. Trump noted talks with the EU were “serious” and emphasized the need for a simpler tariff system given the number of nations involved.
