华盛顿5月8日（路透社）——美国贸易代表杰米森·格林尔周五表示，如果布鲁塞尔未能在7月4日的最后期限前落实贸易协定承诺，美国将恢复对欧盟商品加征高额关税。
格林尔在福克斯商业新闻频道《早安玛丽亚》节目中发表讲话称，他在本周的欧洲之行期间与多个欧洲国家及欧盟的贸易官员进行了会谈，并认为“他们的心思已放在落实所需的改革上”。

“他们已告知我，他们致力于遵守协定。我们希望情况确实如此，但我们正在密切关注。如果情况并非如此，那么美国将恢复对欧盟实施其他关税政策，”他说道。
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周四表示，他将给欧盟至7月4日的时间，以履行去年7月在苏格兰达成的贸易协定中的义务，之后他将把包括汽车在内的欧盟商品关税上调至“更高水平”。特朗普此前曾威胁称，从本周起将欧盟汽车和卡车关税从此前约定的15%上调至25%。
特朗普的言论缓解了欧盟在贸易问题上的紧张关系，但双方在中东战争问题以及北约盟友拒绝直接卷入冲突而引发的美国总统不满方面仍存在分歧。

包括特朗普要求获取格陵兰岛，以及美国最高法院推翻最初促使双方启动贸易谈判的关税裁决在内的一系列事件，拖慢了欧洲议会落实该贸易协定的进度。
格林尔表示，欧盟去年曾承诺将对美国所有工业品关税降至零，为特定农产品提供免税准入，并修订一系列非关税壁垒和繁琐的监管规定。
“我们尚未看到任何一项举措取得成效，”他说。“七个月、八个月过去了，欧盟实际上并未落实其贸易协定义务中的任何一项，”他补充称，华盛顿已通过调整关税履行了协议中的己方义务。
“因此在某些时候，我们不得不说，如果欧盟不遵守协定，那么我们也将等待其遵守协定之后，我们再跟进落实。”

- Summary
- Trump had threatened to raise tariffs on EU vehicles to 25%
- US trade chief Greer says EU officials’ ‘minds are focused’
- Brussels has been slow to keep up its end of 2025 trade deal, Greer says
WASHINGTON, May 8 (Reuters) – The U.S. will revert to higher tariffs on European Union goods if Brussels fails to implement trade deal commitments before a July 4 deadline, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Friday.
Greer, speaking on Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria” program, said he spoke with trade officials from different European countries and the EU during a visit to Europe this week and believed “their minds are focused” on making the needed changes.

“They have told me they’re committed to compliance. We hope that’s the case, but we’re watching very closely. And if it’s not the case, then the U.S. will go back to its other tariff structure for the EU,” he said.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he would give the EU until July 4 to keep its side of a trade deal reached in Scotland last July before he raises tariffs on EU goods, including cars, to “much higher levels.” Trump had earlier threatened to increase tariffs on EU cars and trucks to 25% from the previously agreed 15%, starting this week.
Trump’s comments defused tensions with the EU over the trade issue, but the two sides remain at odds over the war in the Middle East and the U.S. president’s irritation that NATO allies have refused to directly engage in the conflict.

Various developments, including Trump’s demand to acquire Greenland and a U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning the tariffs that prompted the trade negotiations in the first place, had slowed the European Parliament’s implementation of the deal.
Greer said the EU had pledged last year to reduce all of its industrial tariffs to zero for the U.S., provide duty-free access on certain agricultural goods, and revise a variety of non-tariff barriers and burdensome regulations.
“We haven’t seen any of those things come to fruition,” he said. “Seven, eight months later, the EU has not actually implemented any single part of their trade deal obligations,” he said, adding that Washington had kept its part of the bargain by adjusting its tariffs.
“So at some point you have to say, well, if the EU is not in compliance, we’ll wait to be in compliance until they are as well.”
