美国总统特朗普表示,授权商务部和美国贸易代表立即启动程序,对所有在国外制作的进入美国的电影征收100%的关税。
Trump, in an evening post on his social media platform Truth Social, said he has instructed the Commerce Department and US Trade Representative to place a 100% tariff on films that are produced outside the United States and imported into America.
美国总统特朗普在其社交平台Truth Social表示,美国的电影业正在迅速消亡,其他国家正在提供各种各样的激励措施,以吸引美国电影制作人和工作室离开美国。
"The Movie Industry in America is DYING a very fast death. Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States," Trump wrote in his post.
他表示,要让电影重新在美国拍摄:“好莱坞和美国的许多其他地区正在遭受重创,这是其他国家的共同“努力”的结果,是对美国国家安全的威胁。”
"Hollywood, and many other areas within the USA, are being devastated," Trump wrote. "This is a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat. It is, in addition to everything else, messaging and propaganda!"
美国战略与国际问题研究中心资深研究员、美国商务部前官员威廉·赖因施认为,对外国制作电影加征关税“弊远大于利”,将“杀死我们(美国电影)产业”,且外国制作电影构成“国家安全威胁”的说辞很难让人信服。
