It was Wednesday so Europe went from being a “foe” of America to a “great friend”. Next Monday might be different. Perhaps Europe will still be in Donald Trump’s good books. The only person who can say for sure is Mr Trump. Even he probably has little idea. But my hunch is that the ceasefire he struck with Jean-Claude Juncker, president of the European Commission, will hold. Mr Trump loves applause and the last-minute trade agreement with Brussels earned a transatlantic ovation. Europe has won a reprieve. The portents for China have commensurately darkened.
那天是周三,所以欧洲从美国的“敌人”变成了“好朋友”。下周一可能会有所不同。也许唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)仍将说欧洲的好话。唯一说得准的人是特朗普。就连他自己也很可能没想好。但我的预感是,他与欧盟委员会(European Commission)主席让-克洛德•容克(Jean-Claude Juncker)达成的停火协议将会得到落实。特朗普爱听掌声,而他与布鲁塞尔方面在最后一刻达成的贸易协议赢得了大西洋两岸的欢呼。欧洲争取到了缓刑。manbetx3.0 面对的预兆则相应地变暗了。
