特朗普暗示美國可以退出世界貿易組織

Donald Trump suggested on Sunday that the US could pull out of the World Trade Organisation and said that the EU had been created largely to compete against the US in international trade.

上週日,唐納德•特朗普(Donald Trump)暗示,美國可以退出世界貿易組織(WTO)。他還表示,歐盟(EU)的建立在很大程度上是爲了與美國在國際貿易中競爭。

In an interview with NBC, the Republican presidential candidate said that the US might withdraw from the WTO if his plans to use tariffs to bring factories back from Mexico were challenged.

在接受美國全國廣播公司(NBC)採訪時,這位共和黨總統候選人表示,如果自己利用關稅將工廠從墨西哥遷回美國國內的計劃遭遇挑戰,美國可能會退出WTO。

Mr Trump has made trade a central part of his populist economic message and has in the past threatened to pull out of the North American Free Trade Agreement and levy tariffs on Chinese goods. His comments on WTO appeared to take his anti-free trade rhetoric up a further notch.

特朗普已將貿易當作其民粹主義經濟理念的核心內容之一,他以前曾威脅要讓美國退出《北美自由貿易協定》(North American Free Trade Agreement)、並對中國商品徵收高額關稅。此番關於WTO的言論,似乎進一步擡高了其反自由貿易的調門。

Mr Trump said he would consider imposing a tax of 15-35 per cent on US companies that had moved manufacturing to Mexico. Asked if such a policy would not contravene WTO rules, he replied: “It doesn’t matter. Then we’re going to renegotiate or we’re going to pull out. These trade deals are a disaster, the World Trade Organisation is a disaster.”

特朗普表示,他將考慮對已將生產遷至墨西哥的美國公司加徵稅率爲15%至35%的稅。當被問及此類政策是否與WTO規則衝突時,他回答說:“沒關係。屆時我們將重新談判,或者退出。這些貿易協定是一場災難,WTO是一場災難。”

Remarking that he was “the only one of all of these people at the higher level of the wonderful world of politics” who predicted a British vote for Brexit, Mr Trump said he was not worried about the risk of the EU fracturing.

在談及自己是“奇妙的政治世界所有高層人士中唯一一個”預測到英國公投會決定退歐的人時,特朗普表示,他並不擔心歐盟分裂的風險。

“Don’t forget, Europe got together, why, primarily did they get together? So that they could beat the United States when it comes to making money, in other words, foreign trade,” he said.

“別忘了,歐洲聯合在一起,他們當初爲什麼聯合起來?這樣做他們就能在賺錢——也就是對外貿易——方面擊敗美國,”他說。

“Hey, I love Europe, I have property in Europe. I’m just saying, the reason that it got together was like a consortium so that it could compete with the United States.”

“嘿,我愛歐洲,我在歐洲有財產。我只是在說,歐洲聯合起來就是爲了像一個集團一樣,這樣就能與美國競爭。”
