Brussels Trump to remove industrial tariffs to the US | International

EU is trying to do everything in his hand so that the United States will negotiate President Donald Trump bombed trade war. The European Commission came to Washington to remove all tariffs on industrial products during their conversations from February, as described by its own president Ursula Van Der Leen. This offer, at the moment, does not find eclipse to the other side of Atlantic. But Brussels did not give up: “We are conducting it on the table,” German politics emphasized on another black day for bags around the world, and the markets have caused the heavy tariffs that they run by Trump.

“We have provided zero tariffs for zero for industrial products because we have successfully done with many other commercial partners because Europe is always there Van der Leen mentionedAfter his meeting with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahar Store. His words came shortly before the end of the EU council dedicated to trade. Commerce Commissioner of Commerce Commissioner Momos Sefkovic explained that at the first meeting of nearly two months ago, he explained that he had placed him on the table to his US counter. His early offer was opened for the automobile sector, but the European Commerce Manager was opened to the entire industrial department as described.

“We are also ready to discuss zero tariffs for all industrial goods, which means going beyond cars, we are talking about chemical, CE shadow products, rubber and plastic, machines. He is very hopeful On the offer’s reception. Despite everything I did not throw the towel: “I hope we are ready to resume this discussion in the future. Now, in the future it will continue to be a chance.”

According to the EU chief’s negotiator, the Trump administration on April 2 has focused on the length of the Trump administration So -Powered tariffs on April 2, because the US has not yet been able to make a policy with the US. That is, Washington is going to give the initial blow and later, perhaps the negotiations can be opened. What is happening with Japan, Trump has already announced talks, and the moment can come with the EU from now on.

Meanwhile, Brussels know that the actions of Trump have been a formal change, despite the priority of the deal as an exit as a exit: “Sefkovic warned that the EU must be in conformity to the change of example in the global trade system,” he said before launching a meeting, he said.

Contracted to Washington

But the main point of the agenda is that Washington is set to grow three tariffs in one and a half months. This is basically the goal of the Commerce Council this Monday. The last details of the first image announced by Brussels after the US imposed 25% of tariffs on aluminum and steel were discussed. The final list known as member states on Monday night will be elected next Wednesday.

The European Commission proposes 25% tariffs on extensive American products such as diamonds, eggs, dental thread, sausages and poultry – in response to taxes to Donald Trump steel and aluminum. Some come into effect on May 16 and some more on December 1. In the latter, the almonds and soybeans are affected. Although sensitive products such as bourbon, wine and dairy products are excluded – in countries such as France and Italy, the EU has already tightened its actions on steel and for aluminum for steel. Member states will vote on April 9.

The Commission agreed to the demands of countries like Italy, France and Ireland, they asked them to pull out the punishment in whiskey Bourbon Important of the United States. When this 50% declared tariffs for alcohol drink, Trump threatened with a 200% tariff rate for EU wines and drinks.

“I hope that France will have good news in the next few days,” Vice President Stephen Sezorne responded by asking about the American whiskey, a few hours before an interview on a French radio. He was “hopeful” that the product did not appear on the final list.

What happened with this alcoholic beverage reflects the difficulties of the EU in the square of all member states. If Washington has not finally seen you negotiating and Brussels will eventually respond to the following blows, those problems go further. The list of products granted in March is about 26,000 million euros, however, in negotiations with capitals and affected sectors, reaching the equivalent amount of Trump administration (about 22,000 million).

“Mutual tariffs” and rituals for cars and parts are so high that the next setback is already very high. Many analysts estimate that the amount of products punished by the EU will reach 100,000 million euros. This is when the EU recently approved a legal tool to extend the range of responses to commercial and financial aggressions when examining the resort to the Brussels antikation device. Under these circumstances, it is more difficult to set up twenty -seven positions.

All these options are under discussion with ministers on Monday with Sefkovic. The sources of the meeting indicate that large differences are not praised. It is similar to the words of the country’s eCommerce of Poland Minister Michal Baranovsky in the EU Council that compatible with this semester: “The general feeling of the room is not happy with the situation. There is also a sense of responsibility and no one talks about taking a step back.” “Yes, many thoughts have come out (how to answer). Some countries have spoken to services (fees) and some other digital services. The Commissioner said that everything was on the table,” he said, “Wan Der Leen’s words in the European Parliament a week before.

In addition to the answers to Washington, Luxemburg has also planned the stock market down for the last three days. Many ministers have urged the Trump administration to take care of what is happening in the markets. “You should listen to bags,” said the Minister of Carlos Body Economy and Commerce.
