Summary
The EU and its leaders warned of swift retaliation if Donald Trump enacts new 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, as he announced over the weekend.
The European Commission criticized the move as “unjustified” and vowed to protect EU businesses.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and French President Emmanuel Macron pledged countermeasures, with Macron warning tariffs would also hurt the U.S.
The UK government said it was monitoring developments, while UK Steel called the potential tariffs “devastating.” The EU previously responded to Trump-era tariffs with retaliatory measures.
I propose that they focus on the person. I personally don’t want to ruin our relationship with our partners overseas. Literally they have been awesome working with for 20 years.
But give it 4 years. The guy literally was president and lost but still doesn’t realize he’s not a king. He has to live in the America he builds. One without healthcare for the elderly or social security for the bankrupt.
The problem being that he is currently heading a superpower which is threatening economic and military force to achieve its goals, which apparently go against those partners.
Let’s use Ukraine as an example… Ukraine should locate Putin every day and say hello with a few random drones. I’m sure they try, but hey if they get that sucker, the war is over. There are so many soldiers dead and people without homes including women, children and old people. Why can’t wars be about removing the rich assholes that start wars? My cousin Alex didn’t start nothing, why should he get to pay extra to eat?
