South Korea Reaches Trade Deal With Trump2025.08.04
韩国与特朗普达成贸易协议
By Lydia DePillis and Choe Sang-Hun
President Trump announced a trade deal with South Korea on Wednesday, putting 15 percent tariffs on South Korean goods, much higher than they were just a few months ago but lower than Mr. Trump had threatened.
上周三，特朗普总统宣布与韩国达成一项贸易协议，对韩国产品征收15%的关税，这一税率虽远高于数月之前，但低于特朗普此前威胁的水平。
Under the terms, South Korea will make $350 billion in investments in the United States and purchase $100 billion of liquefied natural gas. Mr. Trump said in a social media post that South Korea's president, Lee Jae Myung, would visit Washington in two weeks to make further announcements.
根据协议内容，韩国将向美国投资3500亿美元，并采购价值1000亿美元的液化天然气。特朗普在社交媒体上表示，韩国总统李在明（Lee Jae Myung）将在两周内访问华盛顿，届时将发布更多声明。
The agreement follows other trade deals that have been concluded in Asia. Although many details remain to be hammered out, the White House has announced that goods from Japan and the European Union will face 15 percent tariffs, the Philippines and Indonesia 19 percent, and Vietnam 20 percent.
这项协议是在亚洲多项贸易协定陆续达成的背景下出现的。尽管许多细节仍待敲定，白宫已宣布：来自日本和欧盟的商品将被征收15%关税，菲律宾和印度尼西亚为19%，越南为20%。
Of the $350 billion that South Korea has pledged to invest in the United States, $150 billion will be dedicated to helping South Korean companies entering the American shipbuilding industry.
在韩国承诺的3500亿美元投资中，将有1500亿美元专门用于协助韩国企业进入美国造船业。
"There aren't that many countries that can restore the shipbuilding capacity of the U.S., particularly given that China is a strategic rival," said Seungjoo Lee, a professor of political science and international relations at Chung-Ang University in Seoul. "That's why the United States and Japan included cooperation on shipbuilding in the agreement, and in terms of capacity, South Korea is in a better position."
“能够帮助恢复美国造船能力的国家并不多，尤其考虑到中国是战略竞争对手，”首尔中央大学政治学与国际关系教授李承周（Seungjoo Lee）表示。“这也是为什么美日也将造船合作纳入协议中，而就产能而言，韩国的条件更具优势。”
South Korea ran a trade surplus of $66 billion with the United States in 2024, nearly four times what it was in 2018, when Mr. Trump revised the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement. In his announcement, Mr. Trump said that South Korea "will be completely OPEN TO TRADE with the United States, and that they will accept American product including Cars and Trucks, Agriculture, etc."
2024年，韩国对美贸易顺差达660亿美元，几乎是2018年特朗普修订《美韩自由贸易协定》时的四倍。在声明中，特朗普表示，韩国“将对美国完全开放贸易，接受包括汽车、卡车、农产品等在内的美国产品”。

美国关税谈判策略“锚定效应 anchoring effect”：
美方一般先抛出一个极高的关税迫使对家来谈，然后谈出一个低得多、但依然比以前高的关税税率。这便是锚定效应——给出极端初始报价，然后再让步，实际还是获利方。这种策略在民间也被称作“漫天要价，坐地还钱”。
如果知道自己在谈判中筹码有限，继续拖下去可能带来更大的风险，一般会采取止损策略（stop-loss strategy），即“锁定损失，落袋为安”。
