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?
and you think Russia will be waiting patiently for 5yrs?is that how Hitler did it? You think this a 90s movie where the actor will drop his gun to fight with fists?

Every nation will either accept or make offers.

Zero for Zero is not bad

But in such an arrangement
America go still lose
So I wonder if trump will take it

It would be zero to zero on industrial good with trade balance. If EU exports $10billion worth of industrial goods, the US would export the same amount. Any surplus between the two countries over the other would not be allowed

So you think Mad Vlad will attack Europe tomorrow? Let him attack naa. I only mentioned 5 years in terms of re-arming, not in terms of readiness to tackle Russia.

Even if they don't have enough arms to fight Russia (which isn't true), they have money and can always BUY from America. But maybe you think Trump will just stand by and let Mad Vlad overrun Europe.

What started all these tariff war in the first place was the trade imbalance between the US and most countries. Trump is using tariffs to correct it. This wasn’t started over tariff rather over trade imbalance.

Surplus between EU and the US would be subject to tariffs

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

Lol. "Apart from electric vehicles and weapons, the US have no other advantage over the EU" says a village man who have never left the shithole country called Nigeria. Lol 😆😆

Every freaking European country, the US is their major market. America buys most of their goods.
America still gives these countries monies. American GDP is bigger than that of the EU combined. Google is your friend.
The EU are begging the US to negotiate, that's what Trump want. Everybody is taking advantage of the US. He wants it to be balance, "gain from me and I gain from you equally" is that bad to ask?

Ok. But how will that bring back the jobs? Liberate America? Make America great again? And make America rich again?

Basic economics. By removing Tariffs on American exports, they are making American products more competitive in EU markets, which has the effect of increasing business for American companies, which means...jobs bro.

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
How you people reason is unbelievable.

Before, it was USA and NATO that led Ukraine into a needless war.
NOW,
It is EUROPE that led Ukraine into this war.


Can you speak up for the truth for once?

Maybe not. Europe is trying to be clever by half. There must be Tarriff and it must be reciprocal.

The EU may be slow and sluggish with decision making. But they have always crafted a good deal for themselves. UK can attest to that grin

I consider all Trump supporters as complete morons and you are a perfect example.
How else could you have fallen for one of the most foolish man to find himself in power?


Every freaking European country, the US is their major market. America buys most of their goods.
We are talking about zero tariff, this dullard think it is bragging time.
You make a mistake of spewing trash outside of your low-info cult group.


America still gives these countries monies.
Which countries government and how much?


American GDP is bigger than that of the EU combined. Google is your friend.
You couldn't be duller than this.
Do you even know anything about this topic?


The EU are begging the US to negotiate, that's what Trump want. Everybody is taking advantage of the US.
I am not aware of any country begging.
Perhaps you mean concessions, only few poverty-stricken countries have granted unilateral
concessions out of fear or lack of strategic plans. And guess what?
They got nothing in return.


He wants it to be balance, "gain from me and I gain from you equally" is that bad to ask?
He want what to balance?
You members of Trump illiterati are a lost cause but
at least stick to your putrid group of know nothings.
