Bessent said on X the two officials "engaged in frank and detailed discussions regarding trade between the United States and China." 贝森特在白宫内阁会议中宣布此事，并在周五晚间与何立峰通话後确认了会议计画。贝森 特在X平台上表示，双方「就美中贸易进行了坦率且深入的讨论」。 "We will meet in-person next week to continue our discussions," Bessent wrote. 贝森特写道：「我们将於下周亲自会面，继续讨论。」 China state news agency Xinhua reported that He and Bessent had "candid, in- depth, and constructive discussions on major issues in bilateral economic and trade relations" in a video call, and agreed to a new round of trade talks as soon as possible. 中国官方媒体新华社报导称，何立峰与贝森特透过视讯通话，就「双边经贸关系中的重大 问题进行了坦率、深入且具建设性的讨论」，并同意尽快举行新一轮贸易会谈。 The two officials previously met in four European cities over six months to hammer out a tariff truce that brought duties down from triple-digit levels for each country. That agreement expires on November 10. 两位官员先前在六个月内於四个欧洲城市多次会晤，敲定了一项「关税停火协议」，使双 方的高达三位数的关税有所下降。该协议将於11月10日到期。 A meeting in Malaysia would shift the venue to a Southeast Asian exporter that trades heavily with both China and the U.S. and whose goods are now subject to a 19% duty imposed by Trump. Malaysia also faces a threatened 100% U.S. tariff on its semiconductors and derivative electronics devices under a national security trade review. 若会谈在马来西亚举行，则将地点转移到一个与中美两国贸易往来频繁的东南亚出口国。 目前马来西亚的商品正被川普课徵19%的关税，并面临美国以「国家安全审查」为由，对 其半导体及电子零组件徵收高达100%关税的威胁。 Trump earlier on Friday blamed Beijing for the latest impasse, a dispute over China's sweeping new export restrictions on rare-earth minerals and magnets. He has threatened an additional 100% tariff on Chinese imports starting on November 1 unless Beijing scraps the restrictions. 川普周五早些时候指责北京对近期僵局负责，争议焦点在於中国对稀土矿物与磁体的新出 口限制。川普威胁称，除非北京取消这些限制，否则将於11月1日起对中国进口品再加徵 100%关税。 Asked whether such a high tariff was sustainable and what that might do to the U.S. economy, Trump replied: "It's not sustainable, but that's what the number is." 当被问及如此高的关税是否可持续，以及对美国经济的影响时，川普回答：「这确实不可 持续，但目前就是这个数字。」 "They forced me to do that," he said in an interview with Fox Business Network that was broadcast on Friday. 他在接受福斯商业新闻网访问时表示：「是他们逼我的。」 Trump also has threatened to impose new U.S. export controls that would halt supplies of "any and all critical software." 川普同时威胁要实施新的出口管制，停止向中国供应「所有关键软体」。 The new trade actions were Trump's reaction to China dramatically expanding its export controls on rare-earth elements. China dominates the market for such elements, which are essential to tech manufacturing. 这些新贸易措施是川普对中国大幅扩大稀土出口管制的回应。中国主导着全球稀土市场， 而稀土是科技制造的关键材料。 Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer on Wednesday blasted the restrictions as a threat to global supply chains. 贝森特与美国贸易代表格里尔（Jamieson Greer）周三抨击这些限制，称其威胁全球供应 链。 Trump also confirmed he would meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping in two weeks in South Korea and expressed admiration for the Chinese leader. 川普也确认将於两周後在南韩与中国国家主席习近平会面，并表达了对习的欣赏。 "I think we're going to be fine with China, but we have to have a fair deal. It's got to be fair," Trump said on FBN's "Mornings with Maria," which was taped on Thursday. 川普在福斯商业节目《玛丽亚的早晨》中表示：「我认为我们和中国最终会没事，但我们 必须要有一份公平的协议。那必须是公平的。」 Later, as he was preparing to have lunch at the White House with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to discuss efforts to end its war with Russia, Trump said: "China wants to talk, and we like talking to China." 稍後，川普准备在白宫与乌克兰总统泽伦斯基共进午餐，讨论结束俄乌战争的努力时，表 示：「中国想谈，而我们也喜欢与中国谈。」 The softening in tone and affirmation of his intent to meet with Xi helped stem Wall Street's early losses on Friday. Major U.S. stock indexes, which have been rattled over the last week by Trump's abrupt re-imposition of steep levies on Chinese imports and by credit worries among regional banks, were up in afternoon trading. 川普语气的软化与确认将与习近平会晤的意向，有助於遏止华尔街周五早盘的跌势。近一 周来，美股因川普突然重新加徵中国进口品高额关税及地区银行信贷疑虑而动荡不安，当 天下午主要股指回升。 WTO URGES DE-ESCALATION OF TRADE SPATS 世贸组织呼吁缓和贸易冲突 The head of the World Trade Organization urged the U.S. and China to de- escalate trade tensions, warning that a decoupling by the world's two largest economies could reduce global economic output by 7% over the longer term. 世界贸易组织（WTO）总干事恩戈齐·奥孔乔-伊韦阿拉警告，美中若持续脱钩，长期将使 全球经济产出减少7%，并敦促双方缓和贸易紧张。 WTO Director-General Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala told Reuters in an interview the global trade body was extremely concerned about the latest spike in U.S.-China trade tensions and had spoken with officials from both countries to encourage more dialogue. 她在接受路透专访时表示，WTO对近期美中贸易紧张升温「极为关切」，并已与两国官员 接触，鼓励展开更多对话。 But tensions continued to run high, even as Trump and Xi prepared to meet. 然而，即使川普与习近平即将会晤，双方紧张情势仍持续升高。 Bessent took aim at China's state-driven economic practices in a statement to the IMF's steering committee on Friday, urging the IMF and World Bank to take a tougher stance on China's external and internal imbalances and industrial policies that U.S. officials say have helped China build up excess manufacturing capacity that is flooding the world with cheap goods. 贝森特周五在国际货币基金组织（IMF）指导委员会的声明中，抨击中国的「国家主导经 济模式」，并敦促IMF与世界银行对中国的内外部失衡及产业政策采取更强硬立场。美方 认为，中国此举造成过剩产能，正以低价商品充斥全球市场。 And China's Commerce Ministry on Friday accused the U.S. of undermining the rules-based multilateral trading system since the Trump administration took office in 2025, vowing to intensify its use of dispute settlement actions at the WTO. 中国商务部周五反指，自川普政府2025年上任以来，美方破坏以规则为基础的多边贸易体 系，并誓言将加强利用WTO的争端解决机制。 It also urged the U.S. to roll back measures that breach non-discrimination rules and align its industrial and security policies with WTO obligations. 中方并敦促美国撤回违反「非歧视原则」的措施，使其产业与安全政策符合WTO义务。 Bessent earlier in the week had accused one of He's top aides of being " unhinged" in recent interactions with U.S. trade negotiators. China said on Friday that Bessent's remarks "seriously distort the facts." 贝森特本周稍早曾指责何立峰的一位高级助手在与美方贸易谈判时「失去理智」。中国周 五回应称，贝森特的说法「严重歪曲事实」。 心得/评论： 此次冲突核心不是一般关税， 而是围绕「稀土出口限制」 这直接触及AI、军工、电动车等战略产业。 美国以关税报复， 是想迫使中国放宽稀土出口， 避免供应链断链， 尤其在川普推动美国自制晶片的背景下。 --
