The tariffs imposed by President Trump have claimed more jobs, this time at a consumer-electronics manufacturing plant in South Carolina.

这家名为Element Electronics的公司指责称,之所以决定关闭设立于南加州首府北边仅30英里的温斯伯勒的制造设备,是由于美国政府肆意对进口自中国的相关产品加征关税。该公司将保留8名电视零部件生产员工,以期未来恢复生产。

The news is especially hard for Winnsboro and its surrounding communities because of recent job losses in the area, including the shuttering of a Walmart store, the closing of a textile mill, and the cancellation of plans to construct two nuclear reactors.

据当地媒体报道,Element Electronics向南加州劳动局报告了它的停产计划:“此次裁员和停产,是近期美国突然对从中国进口的大量商品加征关税导致的,这些商品包括温斯伯勒工厂装配业务所需的电视机的关键零部件。”
