Trump adds Europe to the list of U.S. trade partners he’s threatening with tariffs

LA Times  

President-elect Donald Trump is threatening the European Union’s 27 countries with tariffs — unless the EU takes steps to import more U.S. goods. President-elect Donald Trump on Friday added the 27 countries that make up the European Union to the list of trade partners he’s threatening with tariffs — unless the group takes steps to import more U.S. goods. We’re not going to go into any details about what that might entail in the future, given that the new administration isn’t even in place yet.” Scott Lincicome, a vice president at the libertarian Cato Institute, said it was difficult to parse what Trump was trying to say relative to European trade, given that natural gas exports to the continent are already up after Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. More than half of the liquified natural gas imported by the EU and the United Kingdom in 2023 came from the United States, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
