墨西哥总统克劳迪娅·谢恩鲍姆明确表示,如果美国总统当选人特朗普对墨西哥商品加征关税,墨西哥将采取报复性措施,这预示着美墨贸易战的可能性。她领导的左翼摩雷纳党也表示将采取相应的反制措施。 墨西哥政府警告称,特朗普的关税政策可能导致40万美国人失业,并推高美国消费者的物价。华盛顿的税务基金会智库专家埃里卡·约克也指出,这些关税将显著增加成本,扰乱所有相关经济体的业务。 特朗普的关税政策还可能损害在美国设有生产线的美国企业,尤其是在汽车和汽车零部件领域,导致大量失业、增长放缓,并迫使美国企业支付目前的两倍税款。 特朗普在2024年总统竞选期间多次重申,他将驱逐数百万非法移民,并对墨西哥商品加征关税,直到毒品(特别是芬太尼)和所有非法外国人停止入侵美国为止。 此外,还有报道称特朗普计划对墨西哥进行军事行动,目标是打击毒品贩运集团。 特朗普的贸易政策以保护主义和“美国优先”为核心,他认为对墨西哥商品加征关税可以迫使墨西哥政府解决毒品走私和非法移民问题。他认为此举将保护美国就业,并降低商品价格。 特朗普曾多次公开批评墨西哥,并对墨西哥移民发表过负面言论。他的强硬立场和对墨西哥的负面描述,加剧了美墨之间的紧张关系。 特朗普的政策可能导致美墨贸易关系恶化,引发贸易战,对两国经济和国际关系造成严重影响。 特朗普的政策缺乏充分的经济分析和评估,可能对美国消费者和企业造成负面影响。 特朗普的强硬立场和威胁性言论,可能导致美墨关系进一步恶化,甚至引发军事冲突。
