Topics
President Trump: 我正在简化钢铝关税,使其易于理解,对所有国家都一样,但美国制造的除外。此举旨在保护美国国内产业,并为美国带来更多就业机会。我认为这是让美国再次富裕的开始。 Maro Sefcovic: 作为欧盟贸易专员,我认为美国对钢铝征收关税是不合理的。欧盟将采取坚定和适当的对策来回应美国的关税措施,以保护我们的利益。 Ursula von der Leyen: 作为欧盟委员会主席,我深感遗憾美国决定对欧洲钢铝出口征收关税。欧盟不会对此置之不理,我们将采取坚决的反制措施。 Anthony Albanese: 作为澳大利亚总理,我已向特朗普总统提出豁免澳大利亚钢铝关税的要求,并强调美澳之间的贸易顺差是考虑豁免的关键原因。我希望美国能够考虑到我们之间的特殊关系。 Bill Ferry: 作为彭博新闻的资深编辑,我认为特朗普总统对金属征收关税的态度是认真的。许多国家会受到这项关税的影响,包括阿联酋、韩国和台湾等。欧盟可能会对一些标志性的美国商品征收关税,比如哈雷戴维森摩托车和肯塔基波旁威士忌。我认为这可能会引发一场国际贸易紧张局势。

On today's podcast:

  1. Trump Sets 25% Steel, Aluminum Tariffs, Widening Trade War

President Donald Trump ordered a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum imports, escalating his efforts to protect politically important US industries with levies hitting some of the country’s closest allies.

The tariffs will apply widely to all US imports of steel and aluminum, including from Canada and Mexico, among the country’s top foreign suppliers of the metals. The levies, which also include finished metal products, are meant to crack down on what administration officials said were efforts by countries like Russia and China to circumvent existing duties.

  1. EU Says It Will Impose Countermeasures Against US Tariffs

The European Union vowed to respond to 25% tariffs President Donald Trump said the US will impose on steel and aluminum imports, escalating a potential trade dispute with one of Washington’s closest allies.

“I deeply regret the US decision to impose tariffs on European steel and aluminum exports,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in a Tuesday statement. “Unjustified tariffs on the EU will not go unanswered — they will trigger firm and proportionate countermeasures.”

  1. Altman Says ‘No Thank You’ to Musk-Led Group’s OpenAI Bid

A group of investors led by Elon Musk has offered to buy the nonprofit that controls OpenAI for $97.4 billion, escalating a clash between the Tesla chief executive and the artificial intelligence company he co-founded.

With the unsolicited bid, Musk said he hopes to return OpenAI to being “the open-source, safety-focused force for good it once was,” according to a statement. In response, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman posted on Musk’s X social-media platform: “No thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want.”
