特朗普威胁要关闭美墨边境

众所周知,美国总统特朗普对于美国和墨西哥之间的边境问题一直都“耿耿于怀”,曾经多次表示要关闭边境。不过这一次,他要动真格的了?

 

美国时间29日,特朗普针对非法移民问题连发三条推特,并威胁要关闭美墨边境。

 

 

 

 

 

给大家总结一下,特朗普的意思基本可以概括为:

 

1. “The DEMOCRATS have given us the weakest immigration laws anywhere in the World. Mexico has the strongest, & they make more than $100 Billion a year on the U.S. "

1. 民主党给了美国全世界最脆弱的移民法;而墨西哥最强悍,每年能从美国赚一千亿美元。

 

2. “Therefore, CONGRESS MUST CHANGE OUR WEAK IMMIGRATION LAWS NOW, & Mexico must stop illegals from entering the U.S through their country and our Southern Border. ”

2. 美国国会应该现在就修改移民法,墨西哥必须停止让非法移民进入美国。

 

3. “If Mexico doesn’t immediately stop ALL illegal immigration coming into the United States throug our Southern Border, I will be CLOSING the Border, or large sections of the Border, next week. ”

3. 如果墨西哥不立即停止所有非法移民进入美国,我将在下周(4月1日-7日)关闭边境,或大部分边境!

 

According to Xinhuanet, in response to Trumps latest accusation, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said on 29th that the Mexican side is doing its best to deal with illegal immigration and we want to maintain good relations with the U.S. government.

据新华网报道,针对特朗普最新指责,墨西哥总统安德烈斯•曼努埃尔•洛佩斯•奥夫拉多尔29日说,墨方正在尽力应对非法移民偷渡,“我们想与美国政府保持良好关系”。

 

US Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan said the breaking point has arrived for the US immigration system.

CNN报道,美国海关和边境保护局(CBP)局长凯文•麦卡里曾表示,美国移民管制已达到了“极限”。

 

Trump, in Florida on Friday afternoon, said he could close the border to trade for a long time and insisted the US had run out of detention space for undocumented immigrants.

同样在上周五,特朗普在佛罗里达表示,他将“长时间”关闭边境贸易,而且美国已经没有地方扣留那些无档案的移民了。

 

 

Its unclear what Trump means by CLOSING the Border, or large sections of the Border. Past presidents shut down parts of the border at least four times - after John F. Kennedys assassination, to prevent cannabis imports, after a border patrol agent was kidnapped, and immediately following 9/11. All of those instances were short lived.

那么,问题来了,这边境是怎么个关法?不过,此前美国也至少四次关闭过部分边境,分别在肯尼迪遇刺后,阻止大麻进口时,边防人员被绑架后,以及911事件后。不过边境又都在短时间内重新开放。

外媒则普遍关注关闭边境后的“经济账”

 

《洛杉矶时报》网站:特朗普威胁关闭边境,专家警告数十亿美元的经济损失

《纽约时报》网站:鳄梨短缺物价上涨:特朗普关闭边境会怎样影响美国

 

 

Now, consumers in the United States depend on Mexican farmers for fresh fruit and vegetables like avocados, tomatoes, strawberries, grapes and mangoes. Mexico relies heavily on American soybeans, corn, dairy products, chickens, beef and other goods.

文章指出,包括鳄梨在内,美国消费者依赖于墨西哥种植的多种新鲜水果蔬菜,比如西红柿、草莓、葡萄和芒果等。而墨西哥则依赖美国的大豆、玉米、奶制品、鸡肉和牛肉等产品。

 

If the border were shut down, consumers would most likely see an immediate spike in food prices, and supplies of fresh food could dwindle from grocery store shelves in a matter of days. American farmers would lose a major market, causing a drop in prices for their crops and a potential buildup of their goods.

如果关闭边境,美国消费者将很快面临食物价格上涨,商店货架上的新鲜食物将会减少。同时,美国农民可能失去重要市场,导致作物价格下跌,引发潜在的货物囤积。

 

所以,这边境具体怎么个关闭法,还要看特朗普的下一波操作了。
