European leaders condemned the recent imposition of significant tariffs by the U.S., particularly affecting the EU and other trade partners. President Trump's declared "Liberation Day" tariffs, which target various imports including cars and steel, are viewed as harmful to the global economy. Ursula von der Leyen, Chief of the EU Commission, called the tariffs a "major blow" and hinted at potential countermeasures, yet expressed hope for negotiations. The UK also seeks to mitigate impacts through a U.S. economic deal, while France and Italy prepare sector-specific responses to protect affected industries.
Ursula von der Leyen stated the tariffs were a "major blow to the world economy" and highlighted the need for negotiations to address concerns.
Britain's Jonathan Reynolds emphasized they have tools available and will not hesitate to act against the U.S. tariffs.
