Statement by President von der Leyen on the announcement of universal tariffs by the US
President Trump’s announcement of universal tariffs on the whole world, including the EU, is a major blow to the world economy.
I deeply regret this choice.
Let’s be clear-eyed about the immense consequences.
The global economy will massively suffer.
Uncertainty will spiral and trigger the rise of further protectionism.
The consequences will be dire for millions of people around the globe.
Also for the most vulnerable countries, which are now subject to some of the highest US tariffs.
The opposite of what we want to achieve.
The tariffs will also hurt consumers around the world.
It will be felt immediately.
Millions of citizens will face higher grocery bills.
Medication will cost more as well as transportation....
