Auf einen Blick
US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer stated there are no immediate plans for new tariffs on semiconductors, emphasizing that any measures must be timed strategically to boost domestic production and protect manufacturers.
KI-generierte Zusammenfassung
Warum es wichtig ist
The US is exploring ways to protect and boost its domestic semiconductor manufacturing capabilities. This includes considering tariffs as a tool to encourage companies to produce chips within the United States.
美國貿易代表葛里爾（Jamieson Greer）今天表示，美國目前暫無計畫對半導體課徵新的關稅，但他也說透過關稅保護產業以促進晶片製造回流很重要。
路透社和彭博（Bloomberg News）報導，葛里爾在維吉尼亞州北部的美光科技公司（Micron Technology Inc.）記憶體晶片擴廠活動上表示，針對目的在保護美國半導體產業的232條款國安調查，美國貿易代表署（USTR）採取的任何關稅措施都必須適當安排時機，以促進國內產能。
葛里爾說：「對半導體課徵關稅非常重要，但比起保護像這樣的設施，更重要的是確保我們在正確的時機和合理的幅度推動。」
他明確表示，不會在「明天或下週」立即推出關稅措施。
葛里爾表示，在美國總統川普上週於北京與中國國家主席習近平會晤後，政府對晶片關稅的態度並未改變。相關工作包括研議配套措施，以免在美設廠的晶片製造商受到影響。
