川普對進口太陽能電池板和洗衣機征收高額關稅

President Donald Trump imposed stiff tariffs on imported solar panels and washing machines Monday, aiming to protect U.S. manufacturers.

The U.S. Trade Representative's office made the recommendation to the president for the tariffs.

It said the independent U.S. International Trade Commission found that such imports were a "substantial cause of serious injury to domestic manufacturers."

"The president's actions make clear again that the Trump administration will always defend American workers, farmers, ranchers and businesses," U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said Monday.

Trump has often promised to get tough with China and other exporters that he says compete unfairly with U.S. manufacturers.

The tariffs start out at 30 percent on solar panels and decline over time.

美國總統川普星期一對進口太陽能電池板和洗衣機征收高額關稅，以保護美國制造商。

美國貿易代表辦公室向川普總統提出了增收關稅的建議。

美國貿易代表辦公室說，獨立于政府的美國國際貿易委員會認定，這類產品的進口對美國國內制造廠商造成實質性的嚴重傷害。

美國貿易代表萊特赫澤星期一說：“總統的行動再次明確表明，川普行政當局將永遠保護美國工人、農牧場主和公司。”

川普多次誓言要對中國和其它出口國采取嚴厲措施，他說，這些國家不公平地與美國制造商競爭。

對太陽能電池板征收的關稅將從30%開始，以后會逐漸下調。
