EU will respond to Trump’s tariffs, Moscovici says
President Donald Trump is to press ahead with the imposition of 25% tariffs on steel imports and 10% on aluminum, although he said he was willing to strike a deal that could exempt Canada and Mexico.
Washington has repeatedly offered relief from steel and aluminum tariffs to countries that “treat us fairly on trade”, a gesture aimed at putting pressure on Canada and Mexico to give ground in separate North American Free Trade Agreement (Nafta) talks, which appear to be stalled.
