希拉里承諾將強硬對待貿易爭端

Hillary Clinton sought to press home her polling advantage over Donald Trump’s misfiring campaign on Thursday by pledging to take a tougher line in trade disputes with countries like China and accusing him of offering tax handouts to millionaire and billionaire allies.

希拉里•克林頓(Hillary Clinton)週四尋求在唐納德•特朗普(Donald Trump)的競選活動連連失誤之際充分利用自己的民調優勢，她承諾要在與中國等國家的貿易爭端中採取更強硬立場，並譴責特朗普爲其百萬富翁和億萬富翁盟友提供稅收優惠。

The former secretary of state’s speech setting out her economic agenda in Warren, Michigan came three days after Mr Trump unveiled a programme of reforms in Detroit that included steep cuts to business and income tax rates, looser regulation and a tougher stance on trade deals.

美國前國務卿在密歇根州沃倫發表演講，闡述她的經濟議程。就在她這次講話三天前，特朗普在底特律公佈了改革計劃，內容包括大幅削減企業稅和所得稅稅率、放鬆監管，並對貿易協定採取更強硬立場。

In her address Mrs Clinton promised to create a new position of trade prosecutor and triple the number of enforcers as she responded to Mr Trump’s hardline agenda on trade and his claims that countries such as China and Mexico have gained an unfair advantage over the US.

針對特朗普在貿易問題上的強硬派議程、以及其有關中國和墨西哥等國已取得對美不公平優勢的說法，希拉里在講話中承諾要設立一個貿易檢察官的新職位，並將執法人員增至現有水平的三倍。
