中美贸易战：13轮磋商无果 改成“阶段性”方式继续磋；特朗普和刘鹤于1月15日在白宫签署第一阶段经贸协议 (附中英文版本)

不急着签字是绝招，连任再说。

特朗普真是那么想的?

特朗普真是那么想的?

中国把川普引导成那样想的就行了呗。
现在川普怎么想完全在中南海的掌控中。

 

[lindamy]

现在成了鸡和蛋问题了，涨关税就不签，不签就涨关税。

特朗普真是那么想的?

知道他怎么想，他就不是特朗普了。

 

[Jay Wang]

现在成了鸡和蛋问题了，涨关税就不签，不签就涨关税。

涨，美帝人民光腚，土鳖屁民吃素！

[lindamy]

其实如果不签和涨关税死死地连在一起了，唯一的出路是双反：签字和不涨关税。
回到原点。

Donald Trump has called for the World Bank to stop lending money to China, a day after the institution adopted a lending plan to Beijing despite Washington’s objections.

The World Bank on Thursday adopted a plan to aid China with $1bn to $1.5bn in low-interest loans annually until 2025. The plan called for lending to “gradually decline” from the previous five-year average of $1.8bn.

Trump tweeted on Friday night: “Why is the World Bank loaning money to China? Can this be possible? China has plenty of money, and if they don’t, they create it. STOP!”

The White House and the World Bank did not immediately respond to requests for comment about Trump’s remark.

The World Bank loaned China $1.3bn in the fiscal 2019 year, which ended on 30 June, a decrease from about $2.4bn in fiscal 2017.

But the fall in the World Bank’s loans to China is not swift enough for the Trump administration, which has argued that Beijing is too wealthy for international aid.

The past week has seen mounting concern that the US and China will not conclude an interim trade agreement before a new set of American tariffs hit Chinese goods on 15 December.

Trump told a Nato summit that he was in no hurry to sign an agreement before US elections in November. “In some ways it’s better to wait until after the election for the China deal. But they want to make a deal now,” he said, sparking heavy selling on global markets.

The relationship between the superpowers has been further strained by US legislation that aims to tackle Beijing’s repression of ethnic minorities in Xinjiang and human rights abuses in Hong Kong.

On Friday, China’s head of public security called for stronger cooperation with Hong Kong’s police, as pro-democracy protesters vowed to hold another massive rally over the weekend.

In a meeting with Hong Kong police chief Tang Ping-keung in Beijing, China’s public security minister, Zhao Kezhi, said: “The central government and public security ministry will always be a strong backup force for the Hong Kong police force.”

At Friday’s meeting, Tang thanked China’s public security bureau for its “vigorous support and help” and told Zhao that the city’s police force would “throw all of its energy” into stopping violence and unrest in Hong Kong.

The force’s reputation has suffered during the protests, with many accusing officers of brutality.

A new poll released on Friday by the Hong Kong Public Opinion Programme, which has tracked public sentiment for years, showed new record disapproval for the force with 40% of respondents now giving it the lowest mark of zero.

Hong Kong has been battered by six months of often violent protests pushing for greater democratic freedoms and police accountability in the most stark challenge the city has presented to Beijing since its 1997 handover.

BEIJING—U.S. negotiators have offered to slash existing tariffs by as much as half on roughly $360 billion of Chinese-made goods as well as to cancel a new round of levies set to take effect Sunday, according to people briefed on the matter, as the two sides work toward a limited trade deal that could help prevent their shaky relationship from worsening.

President Trump wrote in a tweet on Thursday morning: “Getting VERY close to a BIG DEAL with China. They want it and so do we!”

大让步！美国拟取消15日对华关税 现有税减半(图)

美国《华尔街日报》（WSJ）引述知情人士报道，美方贸易谈判人员提出取消12月15日对约1560亿美元中国货品加徵新一轮关税，并且建议将现时针对约3600亿美元的中国商品关税大减一半。

报道引述知情人士称，有关建议在过去5天左提出，目的是用作交换北京购买大量美国农产品和其他产品的确切承诺，并且更好地保护美国知识 产权，以及允许扩大中国金融服务业的市场准入。

报道续指，如果中国不履行潜在协议中的部分承诺，华府将会把关税恢复至原始水平，这条件被称为贸易谈判中的「回弹条款」（snapback provision）。

现时距离美国对1560亿美元中国货品加徵关税的期限约仅2日，美国总统特朗普（Donald Trump）在Twitter发文称，将与中国非常接近达成一个大协议，并称「他们想要，我们也是！」

毛衣战不是一直在嘛，只有趴下一个后签的东西才能有效执行，否则上当的一定是美国佬，这用脚丫子都能想明白。
