美国总统唐纳德·特朗普重申了禁止柴油出口以抑制国内飙升价格的威胁，尽管分析人士警告称，此举可能会在其他地区造成灾难性后果。美国是全球最大的柴油生产国和出口国，特朗普的威胁已引起买家的警惕。在各国努力应对全球冲突带来的影响之际，封锁出口可能会进一步加剧通胀。
US President Donald Trump reiterated his threat to ban diesel exports in order to tame soaring domestic prices, though analysts warned such a move could have devastating consequences elsewhere. The US is the world’s biggest diesel producer and exporter, and Trump’s threat has put buyers on alert. A block could further fuel inflation as countries struggle to contain the fallout of global conflict.
受影响最严重的地区包括墨西哥（其约80%的需求依赖于其北方邻国）和欧洲。高盛经济学家预测，欧洲的柴油价格可能会上涨2%。一位分析师指出，不久之后，“欧洲政界人士可能会越来越多地将对美国能源的依赖不仅视为一种多元化手段，而且……视为一种特定的政治风险。”—— 杰罗尼莫·冈萨雷斯
Among the places most vulnerable are Mexico, which imports around 80% of its needs from its northern neighbor, and Europe, where Goldman Sachs economists forecast diesel prices could increase 2%. Soon, “European politicians may increasingly view dependence on US energy not only as a means of diversification,” one analyst noted, “but also … a specific political risk.” — Jeronimo Gonzalez
