Trump's Reciprocal Tariffs: EU Offers zero-for-zero Tariffs For Industrial Goods by fergie001: 3:00pm On Apr 07
Europe is ready to negotiate with the US.

We have offered zero-for-zero tariffs for industrial goods.


Because we're always ready for a good deal.

But we’re also prepared to respond with countermeasures.

And protect ourselves against indirect effects through trade diversion.

Ursula Gertrud Von der Leyen
President, European Union Commission

I suppose EU just said this to fulfill all righteousness.

Trump may likely push back at first.
Apart from electric vehicles and weapons, US have no other advantage over the EU.
A zero tariff on industrial goods will mostly "benefit" the EU.

Waiting for the pro-tariff Trump-supporter to make a U-turn immediately dear leader
changes his mind and tell us that tariffs are no longer good.

You want to negotiate with Donald Trump?
You should have responded with the counter-measures first, then negotiate later (when the heat is felt).

ok. They are ready to shift grounds?

I have not seen a useless, toothless organisation like EU. Led Ukraine to war they can't fund nor have what it takes to defend Europe.

Remove U.S, Remove China. The current European standing military can't win Russia in an all out war

Which Russia? Europe is militarily far below it's potential, but that can be fixed in less than 5 years. Better believe they're on it now. As for Russia, which Russia?

And how did they lead Ukraine to war?

In Trumpiverse, there's no scenario in which America wins on this tariff matter. The current system is not weighted against America, but Mr Trump just wants to see a trade surplus - because he has a kid's understanding of these things. If that happens, the price Americans will pay is not something you want to imagine. But let's see.

Bunch of pussies. Europe the American lapdog...

They are already shivering 🥶 because of tariff, what if a blanket embargo or sanction were place on them just like the ones on North Korea, Cuba, Iran or Venezuela?

I didn't mention Russia because Russia nor be their grand father mate.....

A continent built on thievery, genocide and on the wealth of African Nations....
