On February 4, 2025, President Donald Trump announced a pause in planned tariffs after discussions with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. This move came amidst warnings from EU leaders about the potential for a trade war, which they argue could adversely affect consumers and inadvertently benefit China. The EU trade dynamics reveal a significant deficit for the US, highlighting the complexity of the international trade landscape.
"European leaders warned that US President Donald Trump's threat to impose tariffs on the EU risked sparking a trade war that would harm consumers on both sides of the Atlantic, as well as strengthen China's hand."
"Trump confirmed the pause after talking to the leaders of Mexico and Canada, expressing his satisfaction with the discussions that were held regarding tariffs."
