EU Offers Trump Tariff Removal: A Fool’s Errand?
In response to recent U.S. tariff increases, the EU reiterated its offer of a “zero-for-zero” tariff deal encompassing industrial goods like cars and chemicals. This offer, while excluding agricultural products and safety standards, aims to de-escalate the escalating trade war sparked by President Trump. The current situation has severely impacted global financial markets, causing significant losses. While the EU’s average tariffs on U.S. non-agricultural goods are low, the 10% tariff on American cars remains a point of contention.
