基礎被動語態

There's been condemnation of President Donald Trump's announcement that he will hit the UK and other European countries with increased trade tariffs unless the US is allowed to buy Greenland, which is a semi autonomous Danish territory.

針對美國總統唐納·川普宣佈，除非允許美國購買格陵蘭，這是一個丹麥的半自治領土，否則將對英國及其他歐洲國家加徵貿易關稅，此舉已遭到各方譴責。

The president said a 10% levy would come into effect on 1 February.

總統表示，10%的稅款將於2月1日生效。

程度副詞

Zakir Starmer said threatening tariffs on NATO allies was completely wrong.

扎基爾·斯塔默表示，威脅對北約盟友徵收關稅是完全錯誤的。

The EU is to hold an emergency meeting today.

Our North America correspondent, David Willis reports.

我們的北美特派員大衛·威利斯報導。

In Greenland, hundreds took to the streets in defiance of Donald Trump's desire to take control of the island.

在格陵蘭，數百人走上街頭，抗議唐納·川普想要控制該島的意圖。

An estimated 85% of Greenland's population rejects becoming part of the United States.

估計有85%的格陵蘭人口拒絕成為美國的一部分。

We are not interested in being Americans.

The President believes the island is crucial to America's national security interests and that only the US can protect Greenland against invasion by China or Russia.

總統認為該島對美國的國家安全利益至關重要，並且只有美國才能保護格陵蘭免受中國或俄羅斯的入侵。

Having talked of buying or seizing it, he's now turning his attention to those who stand opposed to America's annexation, namely its allies in Europe.

在談論購買或奪取該島之後，他現在正將注意力轉向那些反對美國併吞的國家，也就是其歐洲盟友。

Trump has now threatened tariffs of up to 25% on imports from eight European countries, including the UK, until such time as a deal is reached for the complete and total purchase of Greenland.

川普現在威脅對包括英國在內的八個歐洲國家實施高達25%的進口貿易關稅，直到達成協議，完全徹底地購買格陵蘭。

Without such a deal, the President and his allies insist the security of the US and the world is at stake with respect to Denmark.

沒有這樣的協議，總統及其盟友堅持認為，美國和世界的安全將會因為丹麥而受到威脅。

Denmark is a tiny country with a tiny economy and a tiny military.

丹麥是一個小國家，經濟和軍隊都很小。

They cannot control the territory of Greenland.

In response, the leaders of the European Council and the European Commission said the proposed tariffs would undermine relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral.

作為回應，歐洲理事會和歐洲委員會的領導人表示，提議的關稅將破壞關係，並可能引發危險的惡性循環。

In a joint statement, Antonio Costa and Ursula von der Leyen stressed territorial integrity and sovereignty are fundamental principles of international law.

在一份聯合聲明中，安東尼奧·科斯塔和烏蘇拉·馮德萊恩強調，領土完整和主權是國際法的基本原則。

And in an interview recorded before the tariff announcement, the speaker of the House of Representatives, a close ally of the President, said he thought Mr.

在關稅公告前錄製的一次採訪中，眾議院議長，總統的親密盟友，表示他認為川普先生

Trump had ruled out using force to obtain Greenland.

已經排除了使用武力來獲得格陵蘭的可能性。

I don't foresee military intervention in Greenland.

我不預見格陵蘭會有軍事幹預。

It's a small population of people and I think diplomatic channels is the way to go.

那裡人口不多，我認為外交途徑是最好的解決辦法。

Soldiers from other European nations have been arriving in Greenland over the last few days for a Danish led Arctic endurance exercise designed to demonstrate the continent's commitment to the island's defence, something the President referred to as a very dangerous game.

過去幾天，來自其他歐洲國家的阿兵哥陸續抵達格陵蘭，參加由丹麥領導的北極耐力演習，旨在展現歐洲大陸對該島防禦的承諾，總統稱此舉為一場非常危險的遊戲。

BBC新聞華盛頓記者 David Willis 報導。

Our political correspondent, Harry Farley explains how Sikhir Starmer will be trying to pursue this issue directly with President Trump.

我們的政治特派員 Harry Farley 解釋了 Keir Starmer 將如何直接與川普總統就此議題展開溝通。

I think we can expect people in Downing street to be trying to schedule a call between Sikir Starmer and Donald Trump as soon as possible.

我認為我們可以預期唐寧街的官員們會盡快安排 Keir Starmer 與唐納·川普的通話。

Although of course, the last time Keir Starmer wanted a call with Donald Trump in the wake of those US strikes, On Venezuela, it took nearly a week for that to happen, happen.

當然，上次 Keir Starmer 在美國對委內瑞拉進行打擊後想要與唐納·川普通話時，足足等了一週才實現。

So no guarantee of when that call will happen.

所以無法保證這次通話何時會發生。

The prime Minister has been pursuing a strategy of trying to get as close to the president as possible to flatter him, to avoid criticizing him wherever possible until this issue with Greenland.

首相一直採取試圖盡可能接近總統的策略，奉承他，盡可能避免批評他，直到格陵蘭的議題出現。

And people in government feel that a line has been crossed with those threats to a NATO ally.

政府內部人士認為，對北約盟友發出這些威脅已經越界了。

So we had quite a punchy statement from Downing street last night saying that applying tariffs on allies for pursuing the collective strategy of, of NATO allies is completely wrong, the prime Minister said.

所以唐寧街昨晚發表了一份相當強硬的聲明，首相說，對盟友徵收貿易關稅來推動北約盟友的集體戰略是完全錯誤的。

And it's worth saying, as far as reaction here in the UK goes, the prime Minister is not alone.

而且值得一提的是，就英國這裡的反應來看，首相並非孤單一人。

Opposition parties also similarly strong in their opposition.

As for European allies more broadly, as you'd expect, I suppose, EU ambassadors will be summoned to an emergency meeting in Brussels this afternoon to discuss this.

至於更廣泛的歐洲盟友，正如你所預期的，歐盟大使們今天下午將被召集到布魯塞爾召開緊急會議討論此事。

And it's also worth noting some in Donald Trump's own party have been critical of the this.

而且也值得注意的是，唐納·川普自己黨內的一些人也對此提出了批評。

美國參議院北約觀察小組的聯合主席，包括共和黨參議員 Thom Tillis，他是一位直言不諱的川普批評者，他們表示這些關稅對美國、對美國企業以及對美國盟友來說都會是壞事。

senate NATO observer group, including the Republican Senator Thom Tillis, who is an outspoken Trump critic, have said that this, these tariffs would be bad for America, bad for American business and bad for America's allies.

Sam Lowe is head of International Trade Practice at Flint Global and joins us now.

What are the questions you're asking yourself?

So one of the first questions is around when they may enter into force.

所以第一個問題是關於它們何時可能生效。

So the first tranche would be at the beginning of February, which does of course, leave a window ahead of that for negotiation.

所以第一批會在二月初，這當然會在之前留下協商的空間。

So it is still possible that these tariffs are not introduced either because they're suspended or deferred for a period of time.

所以這些關稅仍有可能不會被引入，因為它們被暫停或延後一段時間。

But of course, this isn't necessarily helpful for businesses planning their exports to the US because they now no longer know exactly what those tariffs rates will be from February onwards.

但當然，這對規劃出口到美國的企業來說不一定有幫助，因為它們現在不再確切知道從二月起這些關稅稅率會是多少。

There's then also questions about the threat itself.

接著還有關於威脅本身的疑問。

The president didn't threaten the entire eu, for example, he threatened individual member states, which would suggest member state specific tariffs, which of course then feeds through to questions about how the EU will collectively respond.

例如，總統並沒有威脅整個歐盟，他威脅的是個別成員國，這將暗示針對成員國的關稅，當然這又會引發關於歐盟將如何集體回應的問題。

What impact might these tariffs have if they do come into effect?

如果這些關稅真的生效，可能會產生什麼影響？

And we must of course remember that sort of acronym, taco.

我們當然必須記住那個縮寫，taco。

So I always think Trump sometimes chickens out, but

所以，我總覺得川普有時候會退縮，但

often does follow through on his tariff threats as well.

他也常常會兌現他的關稅威脅。

So trying to work out which way he's going to go on, this is going to be a core part of the conversation over the coming weeks.

所以，要弄清楚他會怎麼做，將是接下來幾週討論的核心。

But if we think about specific impacts, we of course have the UK US Trade agreement that was agreed last year and this means that, for example, steel going into the US is tariffs at 25% rather than the 50% on everyone else.

但如果我們想想具體的影響，當然還有英國和美國去年同意的貿易協議，這意味著，例如，進入美國的鋼鐵關稅是 25%，而不是其他國家的一律 50%。

It means 100,000 vehicles receive a tariff of 10% rather than than 27 and a half percent.

這意味著 10 萬輛汽車的關稅是 10%，而不是 27.5%。

And it calls into question all of these arrangements on the EU side, which is currently going through the process of ratifying its own agreement with the us.

而且這也讓歐盟方面所有這些協議都受到質疑，歐盟目前正在透過準許與美國自己的協議的程序。

I now suspect that's not going to happen.

So even if these threats don't go ahead, of course means that we now have to question the legitimacy of these deals and the sustainability of these deals because it's become increasingly clear that the President will renege on them if something important to him rises up the agenda.

所以，即使這些威脅沒有成真，當然也意味著我們現在必須質疑這些協議的合法性和可持續性，因為越來越清楚的是，如果對總統來說重要的事情出現了，他就會食言。

Because as you note, it's not the whole of the EU he's talking about.

因為你提到，他不是在談論整個歐盟。

So this is one of those areas where if you talk to people who don't work on trade, they find it very surprising that the US could target individual member states rather than the EU as a whole.

所以這就是一個情況，如果你問那些不做貿易的人，他們會很驚訝美國可以針對個別會員國，而不是整個歐盟。

But there's actually quite a lot of precedent for this in the context of threats around digital services taxes.

但其實在數位服務稅的威脅背景下，有很多先例。

Individual member states have been named in the past when it comes to tariffing olives.

過去在橄欖關稅方面，個別會員國也曾被點名。

For example, the US applied anti dumping tariffs to Spanish olives.

例如，美國曾對西班牙橄欖課徵反傾銷關稅。

So it is possible to target individual member states.

所以針對個別會員國是可能的。

It is of course not easy to enforce, so we'll need to see how exactly that plays out.

當然，執行起來並不簡單，所以我們需要看看具體會如何發展。

It's still possible that the tariffs end up being EU wide, but

關稅最終還是有可能會是歐盟全面適用，但

we can't rule out member state specific tariffs because they've happened before.

我們不能排除會員國特定關稅的可能性，因為以前就發生過。

What will happen to the US EU Trade Agreement with the threat of tariffs looming overhead?

在關稅威脅籠罩下，美歐貿易協議會怎麼樣？

Well, I suspect it's not going to be implemented on the EU side.

嗯，我猜歐盟這邊應該不會執行。

We should note that the EU was already slow walking the introduction of its own commitments, by which I mean tariff reductions on US exports to the eu.

我們要注意的是，歐盟其實本來就在緩慢推動自己的承諾，也就是說，美國出口到歐盟的關稅減免。

And we've since overnight had prominent members of the European Parliament come out publicly saying they're not going to sign off these tariff reductions whilst this threat is lingering.

而且我們也看到，歐洲議會裡一些重要的成員公開表示，在這種威脅揮之不去的情況下，他們不會簽署這些關稅減免。

And we've also seen the US Trade Representative Germaine Greer say, well, actually

我們也看到美國貿易代表 Germaine Greer 說，其實

you shouldn't link the implementation of the trade deal to what's going on in Greenland.

你不應該把貿易協議的執行和格陵蘭發生的事情連結在一起。

They're different things, but that's just not going to be possible.

這是兩回事，但這根本不可能。

So the EU US Trade Agreement was already precarious.

所以，歐盟美國貿易協議本來就已經岌岌可危了。

There are lots of reasons it could fall away.

I think that probability has now increased substantially.

我認為現在這個機率已經大幅增加了。
