#特朗普暂停新关税 The main reasons for Trump's suspension of new tariffs are as follows:
- Domestic economic pressure: Increased tariffs would lead to rising domestic prices in the United States, increasing the burden on businesses and consumers, and harming the U.S. economy. Many small American businesses are facing issues such as rising costs and tight cash flow due to tariffs, and some have even been forced to close. At the same time, increased tariffs have also triggered turmoil in the global stock market, with significant declines in U.S. stocks, negatively impacting the U.S. economy and financial markets.
- International backlash: The U.S. policy of "reciprocal tariffs" has provoked strong dissatisfaction and countermeasures from many trading partners, such as China and the European Union, which have taken corresponding tariff countermeasures. This has put U.S. export companies in a difficult position, further affecting the U.S. economy.
- Diplomatic considerations: The trade war could lead to strained diplomatic relations between the U.S. and other countries, affecting its international status and cooperative relationships. Suspending tariffs helps to ease relations with some countries and creates a better atmosphere for diplomatic dialogue and cooperation.
However, while Trump suspends new tariffs on some countries, he still adopts a tough stance towards China, continuing to impose tariffs or threatening to impose higher tariffs, mainly based on his so-called "trade rebalancing" and misconceptions about the need for "opening up" the Chinese economy. But this approach not only harms Sino-U.S. economic and trade relations but also is detrimental to the stability and development of the global economy.
