华盛顿，3月18日电（路透社）——美国副总统JD·万斯和能源部长克里斯·赖特将于周四与美国最大的石油贸易组织——美国石油协会（API）会面，特朗普政府正试图缓解不断上涨的汽油价格。
据旅行分析机构AAA称，在伊朗战争进入第三周之际，万斯周三在密歇根州对记者表示，政府将在未来24至48小时内宣布“几项举措”以应对汽油价格上涨。目前，全国汽油均价较上月上涨了92美分。

在密歇根州奥本山市的一家制造工厂，万斯谈及油价上涨问题时表示：“未来几周我们将面临一段艰难时期，但这只是暂时的。”
美国石油协会一位发言人向路透社证实，万斯、赖特、国会议员和州长们将于周四会面，讨论全球能源市场波动性加剧的问题。
该发言人表示：“我们行业正专注于洞察市场动态，并长期加强美国的能源领导力和韧性。”
周三，伊朗主要气田帕尔斯（Pars）遭袭，这是首次有报道称伊朗波斯湾能源基础设施遇袭，油价随后大幅飙升。此外，伊朗附近关键石油运输航道霍尔木兹海峡的航运安全受到威胁，油轮面临水雷风险，市场也因此受到冲击。
德黑兰方面表示，将在波斯湾地区对此次气田袭击展开报复，这可能进一步推高消费者汽油价格。
特朗普政府深知，美国人在加油站的支出增加可能会在11月中期选举前损害共和党利益，而共和党希望在此次选举中继续掌控美国国会参众两院。
“我们知道油价在上涨，我们也知道民众正因油价上涨而受苦，我们正在尽一切努力确保油价保持在更低水平。”万斯对密歇根州民众说道。

WASHINGTON, March 18 (Reuters) – U.S. Vice President JD Vance and Energy Secretary Chris Wright will meet on Thursday with the American Petroleum Institute, the nation’s largest oil trade group, as the Trump administration looks to ease rising gas prices.
In the third week of the Iran war, Vance told reporters in Michigan on Wednesday the administration will announce a “couple of things” in the next 24 to 48 hours to address gas prices, now up 92 cents on average nationwide compared to last month, according to travel analyst AAA.

At a manufacturing facility in Auburn Hills, Michigan, Vance spoke about higher gas prices and said there is a “rough road ahead of us for the next few weeks, but it’s temporary.”
An API spokesperson confirmed to Reuters that Vance, Wright, lawmakers and governors would meet on Thursday to discuss energy markets amid rising global volatility.
“Our industry is focused on providing insight into market dynamics and strengthening American energy leadership and resilience for the long term,” the spokesperson said.
Oil prices surged higher after Iran’s major gas field, Pars, was hit on Wednesday in the first reported strikes on Iran’s Gulf energy infrastructure. Markets have also been rattled by threats to shipping near the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil shipping lane near Iran, where tankers face the risk of mines.

Tehran said it would retaliate throughout the Gulf for the gas field strike, which could potentially cause prices to go even higher for consumers.
The Trump administration is acutely aware that higher costs for Americans at the pump could hurt Republicans ahead of the November midterm elections, when the party hopes to keep control of both chambers of the U.S. Congress.
“We know they’re up, and we know that people are hurting because of it, and we’re doing everything that we can to ensure that they stay lower,” Vance told the Michigan crowd.
