EU's von der Leyen says Trump tariffs 'major blow' to global economy
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has warned that the tariffs announced by Trump are likely to cause great harm to the global economy and people's livelihoods.
"President Trump's announcement of universal tariffs on the whole world, including the EU, is a major blow to the world economy," she said.
"Uncertainty will spiral and trigger the rise of further protectionism. The consequences will be dire for millions of people around the globe," she added.
Von der Leyen said that the EU was already preparing moves to counteract the tariffs if negotiations did not succeed in resolving the trade conflict with the US.
"We are already finalizing a first package of countermeasures in response to tariffs on steel. And we are now preparing for further countermeasures, to protect our interests and our businesses if negotiations fail," she said.
Trump has imposed new tariffs of 20% on imports from the EU after previously slapping tariffs on steel and aluminum imports as well as cars and auto parts from the bloc.
Tariffs should spur free trade with other partners besides US: EU Council president
Europe should strive for free trade agreements with other global partners in view of the trade tariffs now imposed by Washington, European Council President Antonio Costa said.
"We will engage with all our partners and continue to strengthen and expand our trade network. Now is the time to ratify the agreements with Mercosur, Mexico and decisively advance in the negotiations with India and other key partners," Costa said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
Just ahead of Trump's inauguration in January, the EU announced an agreement with Mexico to strengthen trade relations in view of the likelihood of new US tariffs under the incoming president.
The EU concluded some 20 years of negotiations on a free trade deal with Mercosur in December, but the deal still needs to be ratified by at least 15 of the European Union's 27 member nations representing a minimum of 65% of the EU population.
The deal with Mercosur is still under fire particularly from farmers in France and Poland, who say it will mean an undermining of European agricultural standards.
German economy minister calls for EU unity in the face of tariffs
German Economy Minister Robert Habeck said on Thursday that it was crucial for the European Union to give a unified response to the trade tariffs imposed by the US.
"Europe's strength is our strength. We have the largest single market in the world. We must utilize this strength," Habeck said in a statement.
Habeck criticized the tariffs, saying they could cause huge economic damage across the world.
"The US obsession with tariffs could put a spiral in motion that can tear countries into recession and cause massive damage worldwide," he said, adding that this will have "dire consequences for many people."
Habeck insisted that the EU had "always urged negotiations rather than confrontation" but that if the US did not want a negotiated resolution, the bloc would "give a balanced, clear and resolute response."
He also questioned Trump's use of the term "Liberation Day" in connection with the new tariffs, saying that "for the consumers in the US, the day will not be Liberation Day, but Inflation Day."
