IMF：特朗普式保护主义将威胁全球增长

广州金融翻译公司：国际货币基金组织总裁拉加德警告，美国共和党总统候选人唐纳德•特朗普主张的反贸易政策可能重燃保护主义。

The antitrade policies championed by Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump risk sparking a dangerous protectionist movement that could severely damage the global economy, Christine Lagarde has warned.

克里斯蒂娜•拉加德(Christine Lagarde)警告称，共和党总统候选人唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)主张的反贸易政策可能引发一场危险的保护主义运动，进而严重损害全球经济。广州金融翻译公司。

Britain’s vote to leave the EU is already casting a shadow over international growth, the International Monetary Fund chief said in an interview, adding that the imposition of new trade barriers in another large economy could have ruinous effects.

国际货币基金组织(IMF)总裁在接受采访时表示，英国公投退出欧盟已经给全球经济增长蒙上了一层阴影。她补充说，另一个大型经济体强加新的贸易壁垒可能带来糟糕影响。

“I think it would be quite disastrous, actually. Well I don’t think I should say disastrous because that is an excessive word and I should refrain from excessive words. But it would certainly have a negative impact on global growth,” she told the Financial Times.

她对英国《金融时报》表示：“实际上，我认为这将相当具有灾难性。好吧，我认为我不该说灾难性，因为这是一个极端的词，而我应该避免使用极端的词语。但这肯定会对全球经济增长有负面影响。”广州金融翻译公司。

Any uncertainty surrounding a Trump presidency would probably yield more instability in financial markets, similar to the upheaval in the wake of last month’sUKreferendum, she said in response to a question. But the IMF chief took care not to single out any politician or refer to Mr Trump by name.

她在回答一项提问时表示，围绕特朗普总统任期的任何不确定性都可能在金融市场带来更多不稳定——类似上月英国公投退欧引发的动荡。但拉加德小心翼翼地并未提及任何政界人士，也没有指名谈及特朗普。

Ms Lagarde, who this week begins a second five-year term, warned of the risk of another pause in the march of globalisation, akin to the disruption caused by the beginning of the first world war.

本周开始第二个五年任期的拉加德警告称，全球化进程将面临新一轮停滞的风险，类似于第一次世界大战爆发造成的中断。广州金融翻译公司。

“I hope it is not a 1914 moment and I hope that we can be informed by history to actually address the negative impact of globalisation in order to leverage the benefits that it can deliver,” she said. She added that “waves of protectionism” in the past had “preceded many wars” and that it “hurts growth, hurts inclusion and hurts people”.

她说：“我希望这不是一个1914年时刻，我希望我们能从历史汲取教训，切实解决全球化的负面影响，以便充分利用其能够带来的益处。”她补充道，历史上“保护主义浪潮”曾在“许多战争之前出现过”，而保护主义“伤害增长、伤害包容、伤害人民”。

She made clear her dim view of the policies of Mr Trump, who has proposed punitive tariffs on goods fromChinaandMexicoand ripping upUStrade pacts such as the North American Free Trade Agreement. The IMF has also backed the Obama administration’s push for a new Pacific Rim deal, the 12-country Trans-Pacific Partnership, through the US Congress. Mr Trump has attacked the TPP as a “disaster” for theUS.

她明确表示对特朗普的政见很悲观，后者提议对来自中国和墨西哥的货物征收惩罚性关税，并撕毁美国签署的贸易协定，如《北美自由贸易协定》(NAFTA)。IMF还对奥巴马(Obama)政府推动新的环太平洋协议——12个国家谈判达成的《跨太平洋伙伴关系协定》(Trans-Pacific Partnership, TPP)——获得美国国会批准的努力表示支持。特朗普抨击TPP对美国是一场“灾难”。 广州金融翻译公司。

“We have to work with all governments and all authorities but we certainly hope that whatever new government is in place in the US and whoever is elected as president will look at trade in positive terms,” Ms Lagarde said.

拉加德表示：“我们必须与所有政府、所有当局合作，但我们当然希望，任何新组建的美国政府、任何新当选的总统都能从积极方面看待贸易。”

The IMF chief also called on theUKto move quickly to resolve the uncertainty caused by last month’s Brexit vote.

拉加德还呼吁英国快速采取行动，解决上月退欧公投引发的不确定性。

She had previously said she had hoped that IMF economists would be able to upgrade their 3.2 per cent forecast for global growth this year when they release an update later this month. But that now seemed unlikely, she said.

她此前曾表示，自己原本希望IMF经济学家能在本月晚些时候发布最新经济展望时调高对今年全球经济增长3.2%的预测。但她称，现在看来这似乎不太可能了。

“We want to see clarity sooner rather than later because we think that a lack of clarity feeds uncertainty, which itself undermines investment appetites and decision making,” Ms Lagarde said.

“我们希望越早看到明确的局面越好，因为我们认为，缺乏明确性带来了不确定性，而后者会破坏投资意愿和决策，”拉加德说。
