Brussels caves in to Trump as EU considers reducing US trade tariffs

[cancel2 2022]

The European Union is considering a shock move to end the trade war with Donald Trump by slashing tariffs on car exports.

Brussels officials are looking to negotiate a new deal with the US President, who is a fierce critic of the EU's trade policy. The EU currently imposes tariffs of 10 percent on imports of US-built cars, compared to Washington's 2.5 percent levy on European car imports. Any move to lower the punitive tariffs would be warmly welcomed by Mr Trump. The news comes ahead of a meeting between European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker and the US leader later this month.

I thought that they would hold out longer, still it's all good.

I don't know if what Trump is doing is good or bad for US business. I do know the world is shocked and doesn't know what to do as the US has always been a push over when it comes to trade.

Post is misleading, they are not "caving," but looking at the alternatives, you presented as if it already happened, and of course the Kool Aid drinkers jumped on board

Everyone is looking at all alternatives, and Trump doesn't understand trade, doesn't have the patience, remember, he said "trade wars are easy" and he was going to have trade settled quickly

Always a telltale sign when a conservative has nothing to offer but the personal crapola in rebuttal, and funny when they are so corny attempting it
