European leaders, whose goal was announced, began intense preparatory activities Minimize Los daños Casa Blanca and the Republican regreso. For now, the EU has survived the first attack of anger orchestrated by Trump this week Mexico, Canada and China. It is an unimplemented initial program rate general del 25% from the 1st day of his mandate 10% surcharge may apply from Asian countries. Un castigo por no hacer bastente en la lucha contra la immigración illegal and illegal road transport.

Brussels is no problem for Europeans: 10% and 20% recargo generales, que podría llegar al 100% in caso de los coches. En una interview a Bloomberg campaignTrump complained about a trade deficit of $300,000 million (false figure, the real one is around 125,000 million in 2023). “La UE nos trata tan mal”confirmation.

Los dirigentes comunitarios también han extraído lessons from the experience of his main mandate: el magnate estadounidense impuso derechos aduaneros a la aceituna negra española It is a number of commercial companies against the subsidies of Brussels and Brussels in steel and aluminum Europe and Airbus and Boeing.

La Comisión Von der Leyen is getting ready secret plan He protected Trump's honor. Under this program, the general programs are as follows: initial programs for a series of advertisements; however Desplegar en paralelo un arsenal de contrataque si el apaciguamiento fracasa y el 'renacido' Presidente de EEUU sigue adelante consus aranceles.

However, in recent days, EU leaders have begun to specify their proposals to Trump. President of the Central European Bank (ECB). Christine Lagardedefiende apostar por lo que ella misma ha bautizado como “Estrategia de la Checkera”. “We can offer to buy certain things in the U.S. and signal that we're willing to sit down at the table and see how we can work together. I think that's a better scenario than just a strategy of repression, and it's an eye-for-an-eye dynamic.” ha dicho este jueves Lagarde en una interview al FT.

“Europe could talk Compare with natural gas in Unidos. It obviously falls into this category defense productshe emphasized.

Von der Leyen himself publicly mentioned US liquefied natural gas at a recent summit in Budapest, which could help the Europeans stop Moscow's energy imports. “Todavía recibimos mucho LNG de Russia. “Why don't we replace it with American LNG, which is more convenient for us and will lower our energy prices,” said President Trump, reiteró que trabajará duro “para mantener una con la la American administration”.

In the interview, Lagarde insists that the spread of tariffs will have very negative economic consequences. “Of course, it is for the escalada to produce a balance for any negative impact. It is of no use, it is not Unidos with any European country.” This would lead to a global decline in PIB“, BCE president announced.

In the end, the EU wants to appeal to Trump's business instincts, which he likes to drive hard and close deals. “My approach is quite simple and direct.

It's really impressive: North American countries that barely reach 100 million euros in Europe. However, the temperature of the trade war needs to be reduced.

Anyway, Trump ninca eliminates los aranceles and las aceitunas negras ispañolas ni al acero y aluminio europeos. With the Boeing-Airbus war, ademas is reloading to end Joe Biden's mandate. Incógnita ahora es si la “strategia de la checkera” de Lagarde will work this time, and to the same extent.
