<p>美国总统 <strong>唐纳德·特朗普</strong> 和美联储主席 <strong>杰罗姆·鲍威尔</strong> 周四就美联储总部的装修费用激增发生了公开分歧。</p>
<p>特朗普在增加对鲍威尔降低利率的公开压力的同时，也逐渐放弃了他之前在鲍威尔任期结束前解雇其的言论，这次罕见的访问发生在美联储之际。</p>
<h2><strong>装修争议</strong></h2>
<p>在他们的联合露面中，特朗普质疑位于华盛顿特区的两座历史悠久的美联储建筑的持续装修费用，声称费用已超过 31 亿美元，依据 CNBC 的报道。</p>
<p>鲍威尔反驳称，特朗普将五年前建造的第三座政府建筑的费用也计算在内。</p>
<p>两人一起戴着安全帽参观了现场，并告诉媒体他们将进一步审查情况。</p>
<p>特朗普评论道：“还有很长的路要走。”</p>
<h2><strong>政治背景</strong></h2>
<p>特朗普曾考虑解雇鲍威尔，这将是一个有争议且法律上不确定的举动，但他在周四表示：“这样做是一个重大举动，我认为没有必要。”</p>
<p>鲍威尔一直是特朗普及其盟友的频繁攻击目标，包括联邦住房金融局局长比尔·普尔特，他在访问期间呼吁鲍威尔辞职。</p>
<h2><strong>利率压力</strong></h2>
<p>特朗普的主要批评仍然集中在鲍威尔拒绝进一步降低利率上。尽管特朗普在 2017 年提名了鲍威尔，但他指责美联储主席无能和政治偏见。</p>
<p>特朗普声称，降低利率将为国家节省数千亿美元的利息支付。尽管美联储在 2024 年底将其主要利率下调了一个百分点，降至 4.25%-4.5% 的区间，但自去年 12 月以来一直保持不变。</p>
<h2><strong>特朗普访问后的言论</strong></h2>
<p>特朗普在稍后的讲话中采取了更为和解的语气，称与鲍威尔的参观是 “伟大的荣誉”，并承认装修 “还有很长的路要走”。</p>
<p>“如果从未开始，那就会更好，但事情就是这样，希望能尽快完成，” 他承认道。</p>
<p>不过，特朗普强调了高昂的费用，但表示美国在财务上足够强大以应对这些费用。</p>
<p>Benzinga 联系了白宫以获取评论，但尚未收到回复。</p>

<p>特朗普总统与美联储主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔就美联储总部 31 亿美元的翻修费用公开发生了冲突。特朗普批评了这些开支，而鲍威尔则澄清称特朗普将之前建筑的费用也算在内。尽管早前曾威胁解雇鲍威尔，特朗普表示这并不必要。这场争论突显了特朗普对鲍威尔施加的持续压力，要求他降低利率，特朗普认为这将为国家节省资金。在访问结束后，特朗普采取了更为和解的语气，承认了翻修的挑战，但对美国经济应对这些费用的能力表示信心</p>

<p>President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> and Federal Reserve Chairman <strong>Jerome Powell</strong> had a public disagreement over the escalating price tag for renovation work at the Federal Reserve's headquarters on Thursday.</p>

</div><p>The rare visit to the Fed occurred as Trump increased his public pressure on Powell to decrease interest rates, while also backing away from his earlier talk of dismissing Powell before his term ends next May.</p>

</div><p>During their joint appearance, Trump questioned the costs of ongoing renovations for two historic Fed buildings in Washington, D.C., claiming expenses had exceeded $3.1 billion, according to CNBC.</p>

<div class="lb-trans"><p>特朗普评论道：“还有很长的路要走。”</p>
</div><h2><strong>Political Context</strong></h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2><strong>政治背景</strong></h2>
</div><p>Trump had considered firing Powell, which would have been a controversial and legally uncertain move, but stated on Thursday, “To do that is a big move, and I just don’t think it’s necessary.”</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>特朗普曾考虑解雇鲍威尔，这将是一个有争议且法律上不确定的举动，但他在周四表示：“这样做是一个重大举动，我认为没有必要。”</p>
</div><p>Powell has been a frequent target of criticism from Trump and his allies, including Bill Pulte, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, who was present for the visit and has called for Powell's resignation.</p>

</div><h2><strong>Interest Rate Pressure</strong></h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2><strong>利率压力</strong></h2>
</div><p>Trump's main criticism continues to center on Powell's refusal to lower interest rates further. Despite Trump nominating Powell in 2017, he has accused the Fed chair of incompetence and political bias.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>特朗普的主要批评仍然集中在鲍威尔拒绝进一步降低利率上。尽管特朗普在 2017 年提名了鲍威尔，但他指责美联储主席无能和政治偏见。</p>
</div><p>Trump claims that lower rates would save the country hundreds of billions in interest payments. While the Fed did cut its primary interest rate by a full percentage point in late 2024, taking it to a 4.25%-4.5% range, it has left rates unchanged since December.</p>

<div class="lb-trans"><h2><strong>特朗普访问后的言论</strong></h2>
</div><p>Trump adopted a more conciliatory tone later, describing his tour with Powell as a &#34;Great Honor&#34; and acknowledging that the renovation &#34;has a long way to go.&#34;</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>特朗普在稍后的讲话中采取了更为和解的语气，称与鲍威尔的参观是 “伟大的荣誉”，并承认装修 “还有很长的路要走”。</p>
</div><p>&#34;It would have been much better if it were never started, but it is what it is and, hopefully, it will be finished ASAP,” he conceded.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“如果从未开始，那就会更好，但事情就是这样，希望能尽快完成，” 他承认道。</p>
</div><p>Trump did, however, underscore the high costs, but said the U.S. is strong enough financially to handle them.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>不过，特朗普强调了高昂的费用，但表示美国在财务上足够强大以应对这些费用。</p>
