Hitting tech services from America would be 'nuclear option', says Tanaiste Simon Harris at EU trade ministers meeting
Briefly

The article discusses Simon Harris's remarks on the need for careful negotiation rather than escalation in response to US tariffs on steel and aluminum. Harris underscores European unity as pivotal in these discussions and advocates for a strategic pivot away from the American market to protect local jobs. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on mitigating tariff damages and promoting competitiveness within Europe. Amidst global economic challenges, Harris stresses the need for cooperative dialogue and step-by-step actions to achieve better outcomes for the European economy.
I think if you were to get into that space, it would be an extraordinary escalation at a time when we must be working for de-escalation.
There is no scheme that any Government can devise that would be better than trying to mitigate the damage of tariffs. That's where the focus has to be.
