Topics
Donald Trump: 我计划将钢铁关税提高到50%，以巩固美国钢铁产业。我认为这是保护美国钢铁工人的必要措施，能够确保我们的钢铁行业更加安全。 Michelle Fleury: 特朗普总统签署了行政命令，将对钢铁和铝的进口关税提高到50%。虽然英国可以继续享受25%的关税豁免，但其他国家将受到影响。此外，特朗普政府的其他关税政策正面临法律挑战，这使得新关税政策的实施面临不确定性。我认为特朗普政府希望通过关税作为谈判筹码，与其他国家达成贸易协议。 Flavio Volpeno: 作为加拿大汽车零部件制造商协会的主席，我认为新关税会抑制对加拿大钢铁的需求，并对美国客户征收消费税。虽然加拿大是美国最大的钢铁供应国，但这些关税会增加美国汽车制造商和基础设施建设者的成本。我认为加拿大和美国需要通过谈判找到双赢的解决方案，例如在国防开支或关键矿产供应方面进行合作。 Philip Bell: 作为美国钢铁制造商协会的主席，我认为特朗普总统希望传递的信息是，美国的钢铁贸易伙伴需要认真对待与美国的关系。向美国出售钢铁不是一种权利，而是一种特权。我认为这些关税将为美国钢铁行业创造就业机会，并促使国内钢铁生产能力升级和扩建。虽然其他国家可以更便宜地生产钢铁，但中国的钢铁生产并非基于自由市场原则，而是受到高度补贴。 Ross Gerber: 作为投资人，我认为特朗普的钢铁关税政策实际上是在伤害美国的盟友，并没有为美国创造更多就业机会，是一种自我毁灭的政策。我认为只有傻瓜才会认为特朗普的税收法案对美国有好处，这项法案增加了数万亿美元的赤字，损害了美国中低收入人群的利益。我认为市场认为这些关税不会持续太久，这只是特朗普政府的谈判策略。 Sung-Gul Hong: 作为韩国的教授，我认为特朗普政府的钢铁关税对韩国来说也会有问题。特朗普总统可能会要求韩国为美国提供的安全帮助支付更多费用，甚至可能提出从韩国撤军。我认为韩国需要与美国进行谈判，以找到双方都能接受的解决方案。

However, some business owners say the lack of a functioning government in the Netherlands is affecting their ability to do business because key issues are not being addressed.
