Washington and your guide to what the world’s 2024 US election means
The EU regrets that the United States President has decided to attack Canada, Mexico, and China with significant tariffs, and said that if the threat of expanding trade measures to Europe was satisfied, it would respond.
Trump has caused the World Trade War this weekend by announcing measures against three largest trading partners after the EU, which has the biggest trade deficit with Washington.
Despite the US President saying that he would do so on Friday, the Trump administration has repeatedly imposed tariffs on the EU, and repeatedly acted on the weekend. Ta.
“They don’t take our car, they don’t take our agricultural products, they don’t receive much, and we take everything from them,” Trump tells the reporters. Ta. “Millions of cars, a huge amount of food and agricultural products.” He said that there was no “timeline” for the EU, but it would be right away.
The Spokesman, an EU executive, has the largest relationship between blocks and investment with the United States, and added:
“The full tariff measures will raise business costs and harm workers and consumers,” said Spokesman. “Customs duties cause unnecessary economic confusion and promote inflation. They are damaged on all aspects.”
“We don’t know that additional tariffs are imposed on EU products at this time,” said the committee on Sunday. “However, the EU will respond firmly to the trading partner who imposes an unreasonable or ARBITRARILILILILY trading partner.”
EU officials began creating an emergency response plan for the Trump Trade War last summer.
The first approach was to buy more US products, such as liquefied natural gas, and to negotiate with areas where the president can narrow the trade deficit regularly reduced. Some capitals are also based on pledges to increase the number of national defense expenditures in order to soothe Trump, who wants NATO members to spend 5 % of GDP to the army.
If all of these efforts failed, the committee’s trade department spent several months on a list of US imports, which could be hit by more than 50 % of duties. Brussels secretly keeps the details of these retaliation measures so as not to induce Trump.
In a confirmation of Trump’s appointed person in Washington, Mallosusif Chobi, the EU trade committee, said, “I’m ready to be involved as soon as his counter part is confirmed.” The staff said.
Klaas Knot, a member of the European Central Bank of the Central Bank of the European Central Bank, said on Sunday that the government would oppose US measures and would worsen all aspects of trade war.
“Europe doesn’t want to be pushed away. Knot, the president of the Central Bank of the Netherlands, told the Netherlands on Sunday.
French Prime Minister François Bailo also urged Trump to unite his fellow EU as his tariff threats. “If we are looking for our own interests, we will disappear,” he told the La Tribune newspaper on Sunday.
“There is a card to play in the United States in Trump,” Bailu said, and his country mentioned French products on airplanes, helicopters, and nuclear power plants.
Trump imposed a blanket tariff on Canada and Mexico by calling the International Emergency Economic Power Law, which can take measures in response to “abnormal and extraordinary threats.”
He must find a justifying the EU to just use the same tool, or to impose tariffs targeting a specific industrial department for security reasons, as he did during the first presidential position.
