Scott Miller: 我认为美中贸易战的降级是件好事,双方都在学习和调整。虽然协议旨在恢复贸易,但并未完全恢复到之前的状态。市场和政治对此反应良好,双方缓和了言辞,改善了贸易条件,避免了完全失控的局面。中国制造商非常灵活,可以通过转口贸易规避关税。美国可以通过减少对中国进口的依赖来取得胜利。 Bill Reinsch: 我认为美国在美中贸易谈判中让步更多,但整体而言,缓和是好消息。虽然中国做出了一些实质性让步,但并未在补贴、知识产权盗窃等根本问题上做出改变。本届政府意识到对中国零部件征收高额关税会损害美国制造业,并采取措施避免这种情况。中国不会同意改变其经济模式,因为这涉及到党对社会的控制。降低油价可能会减缓国内石油生产的增长。贸易谈判总是在最后一天达成协议,可能会有延期。
