This week in Trumponomics: A trade war pause
Trump’s plan to impose 25% tariffs on an additional $200 billion worth of Chinese imports has cleared procedural hurdles, so Trump could impose those tariffs at any time. But so far he hasn’t. Instead, his Treasury Secretary, Steven Mnuchin, has proposed a new round of negotiations with the Chinese, who have agreed. Presumably, there will be a meeting.
特朗普計劃對另外價值2000億美元的中國進口產品徵收25%的關稅,這已經解決了程序障礙,因此特朗普可以隨時徵收這些關稅。但到目前為止他還沒有。相反,他的財政部長史蒂文·努欽(Steven Mnuchin)已經提議與已經同意的中國人進行新一輪的談判。據推測,會有一次會議。
