<p>唐纳德·特朗普和习近平下个月将举行峰会，双方都希望稳定关系。然而，随着两位领导人急于弥补在伊朗石油和人工智能方面的战略脆弱性，这种平静正受到考验。</p>
<p>特朗普政府在过去一周加大了对北京与德黑兰关系的审查，制裁了中国最大的私人炼油企业之一。财政部长斯科特·贝森特警告称，如果中国继续支持神职政府的收入，中国银行可能面临二次制裁，他的部门在周二（4 月 28 日）再次敦促金融机构远离伊朗活动。</p>
<p>紧张局势加剧，北京周一阻止了 Meta Platforms 以 20 亿美元收购人工智能初创公司 Manus 的交易——这是其迄今为止最激烈的举措，旨在将尖端技术留在国内。中国本月还宣布了新规，以确保其制造业的主导地位，针对那些将供应链转移出境或遵守美国出口管制的外国公司。</p>
<p>“美国和中国就像两块相互推挤的构造板块，” 霍根·洛威尔斯国际贸易律师、本·科斯特泽瓦表示，“尽管两国之间的压力在增加，但关系看起来仍然稳定，但有许多不同的点可能会导致局势爆发。”</p>
<p>在峰会前的最后几周，华盛顿和北京各自利用谈判窗口来加强供应链，锁定关键知识产权并建立杠杆。</p>
<p>对习近平来说，展示中国科技领域的实力减少了特朗普利用对美国先进芯片的访问作为谈判工具的能力。但美国对波斯湾的封锁也在为北京制造痛点，无论是有意还是无意，因为中国通过霍尔木兹海峡获得的液化天然气比任何其他国家都多，并依赖中东约 40% 的石油进口。</p>

<p>与此同时，共和党领导人似乎无法结束伊朗战争，德国领导人表示这一局势 “羞辱” 了美国。切断伊朗的中国石油客户——他们购买约 90% 的出口——可能会迫使伊斯兰共和国回到谈判桌上。</p>
<p>白宫拒绝就对中国银行的潜在制裁发表评论。中国外交部敦促美国 “停止任意施加制裁和使用长臂管辖权”。</p>
<p>尽管双方的争斗加剧了摩擦，但到目前为止没有迹象表明峰会将第二次推迟，上海复旦大学美国研究中心主任吴心博表示。</p>

<p>美国和中国之间的紧张关系在下个月特朗普与习近平的峰会前加剧。特朗普政府加大了对中国与伊朗关系的审查，对一家主要的中国炼油厂实施了制裁。与此同时，中国阻止了 Meta 以 20 亿美元收购人工智能初创公司 Manus，旨在保护其科技行业。两国在为谈判做准备时，都在加强自己的供应链和知识产权。台湾的地位仍然是一个有争议的问题，美国的军售引发了对两国关系的担忧。尽管紧张局势上升，峰会仍然预计会如期进行</p>

</div><p>Adding to the tensions, Beijing on Monday blocked Meta Platforms’ US$2 billion bid for AI startup Manus – its most dramatic move yet to keep cutting-edge technology inside its borders.

China, US tensions build over Iran and AI before Trump meets Xi

- 特朗普与习近平将于下月举行峰会，旨在稳定两国关系。  
- 美国对中国与伊朗关系加强审查，施加制裁。  
- 中方阻止 Meta 收购 AI 初创公司，显示技术自给自足意图。

在特朗普会见习近平之前，中美因伊朗和人工智能问题的紧张局势加剧
