曾擔任美聯儲主席和美國財政部長的珍妮特·耶倫14日在採訪中表示,特朗普政府的關稅政策如同“自殘”,她同時表示“讓製造業迴歸美國是一場白日夢”。
Former US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen blasted President Donald Trump's tariffs on Monday, saying the return of American manufacturing is just a "pipe dream" that may not even be a "desirable goal".pipe dream:脫離實際的願望;行不通的計劃;妄想

在接受美國CNBC採訪時,耶倫將特朗普政府的關稅政策描述為對美國經濟“巨大的自殘”,其目標尚不清楚,且可能無法實現。“在我看來,特朗普就像是掄著一把大錘,不僅猛敲我們的盟友,更是在爆錘美國經濟。”
In an interview with CNBC television, Yellen repeated earlier comments that Trump's tariffs were a self-inflicted policy wound, and that Trump's policies were taking a "sledgehammer" to the US economy and to US alliances."So I really am worried about the United States becoming isolated, viewed as untrustworthy," said Yellen.
“我不明白加這些關稅的理由是什麼,如果是試圖減少貿易逆差,那麼徵收關稅就不會成功,關稅根本就不是實現這一目標的方法。”耶倫說,“也許是為了讓美國製造業迴歸,但我真的認為這是一個白日夢,不太可能實現。”
Yellen said the rationale for Trump's tariff policies was "unclear and not at all sensible"."Perhaps it's to bring back American manufacturing, but I really think that's a pipe dream, and not something that is likely to be accomplished," she said, referring to Trump's efforts to bring jobs back to the United States."And we could even raise questions about whether or not, in a broad-based way, that's a desirable goal," she added.
