美国总统特朗普当地时间周日(5月5日)发推特称,从本周五(5月10日)开始,美国对中国价值2000亿美元的输美商品所征收的关税将从目前的10%增加到25%。
消息一出,一些美国企业先慌了。
标题: “我们吓坏了”:特朗普新一轮加税让美国企业吓出一身冷汗
President Donald Trump's decision to escalate tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese goods on Friday is angering American businesses that say they were taken by surprise.
特朗普总统决定从本周五开始对中国价值2000亿美元的输美商品增加关税。这个决定惹怒了不少美国的企业主们,他们说被特朗普吓出一身冷汗。
美国企业主:为什么受伤害的总是我……
Phil Page, the CEO of Missouri-based Cap America, estimates that his company has more than $1 million worth of baseball hats already ordered that will now be hit with the higher tariff.
Phil Page是Cap American公司的CEO,在密苏里州做帽子生意。他估计加征的关税正好会殃及他价值100万美元的棒球帽大单。
"It's very difficult to understand what the President is going to do by a business perspective. To spring it on us all at once like this is a very poor judgment on his part," Page said.
“从商业角度真的很难理解总统的决定。让企业主承担突如其来的损失,是一个错误的判断。”
