U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Wednesday that Washington might extend a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for trading partners the administration views as negotiating in good faith. 美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特周三表示，华盛顿可能会将对被视为诚意谈判的贸易伙伴的反制关税暂停90天的期限延长。
"I would say, as I have repeatedly said, that there 18 important trading partners," Bessent said during a congressional hearing. 贝森特在一次国会听证会上表示："我会说，正如我反复提到的那样，有18个重要的贸易伙伴。"
"It is highly likely that those countries, or trading blocs in the case of the [European Union], who are negotiating in good faith -- we will roll the date forward to continue good faith negotiations," he said of the expected July ending of the pause. 关税暂停将在七月结束。他表示："那些国家，或者类似[欧盟]的那些贸易集团，诚意谈判的可能性非常高——我们将推迟日期以继续诚意谈判。"
The remarks came after Trump's team, which included Bessent, said they negotiated to put the administration's truce with China back on track. 这些言论是在特朗普的团队、包括贝森特、表示联邦政府与中国回到和缓轨道之后发表的。
