Donald Trump: 我认为提高钢铁和铝的关税对于保护我们国家的安全至关重要。我相信通过采取这一行动，我们可以确保国内产业的健康发展，并为美国工人创造更多的就业机会。我致力于优先考虑美国的安全和繁荣，而这项关税政策是实现这一目标的关键一步。 Caroline Leavitt: 我认为特朗普总统正在履行他的承诺，以加强美国的钢铁和铝产业，并保护就业。他不仅说说而已，而且确实采取了行动。如果没有这位总统，宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡的钢铁厂就会倒闭，那些工作岗位也会消失。总统拯救了那家公司，拯救了那些工作岗位，也拯救了那个社区。 Katya Dimitrieva: 我认为美国对钢铁和铝的关税已经生效，这将对许多国家产生影响。虽然英国暂时获得了豁免，但其他国家，特别是那些与美国进行贸易谈判的国家，将面临更高的关税。这可能会导致贸易紧张局势加剧，并对全球经济产生影响。

(2) Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi used his first meeting with new US Ambassador David Perdue to complain about recent actions by Washington, underscoring a downturn in relations between the world’s two biggest economies.

 (3) Donald Trump ally Elon Musk lambasted the president’s signature tax bill as a budget-busting “abomination” as Republican fiscal hawks stepped up criticism of the massive fiscal package.

(4) Volkswagen AG said about 20,000 employees will voluntarily leave the company by the end of the decade as the carmaker restructures its German operations to cope with uneven demand for its vehicles.

(5) Britain’s ammunition production begins life in the ancestral town of George Washington. Hundreds of technicians and robots work around the clock to manufacture the empty shells that are then filled with explosives and fired from a range of artillery systems.
