April 7, Reuters reported that the EU seeks unity to retaliate against Trump's tariffs.
In the coming days, EU countries will attempt to form a united front against Trump's tariffs and may approve the first set of targeted countermeasures against US imports worth up to $28 billion. These measures include American-produced meat, grain, wine, timber, clothing, as well as chewing gum, dental floss, vacuum cleaners, toilet paper, and more.
This move means that the EU will join China and Canada in imposing retaliatory tariffs on the US, marking an initial escalation in the global trade war, which will make commodities more expensive for billions of consumers and push the global economy into recession.
