Episode 53: EU issued urgent warning over Trump tariffs as Brexit Britain triumphs in Trump trade war

Former EU Ambassador to the UK and US João Vale de Almeida has voiced his advice to Ursula von der Leyen in the wake of President Donald Trump's decision to impose tariffs on a number of countries. Speaking to GB News' Political Editor Christopher Hope, he said: " I would tell her to stay cool, but stay firm and react in a smart way. Our purpose should be to go back to where we were before in terms of not escalating a tariff war. But if that is what the US wants we will have to play, we'll have to play a game. But I think first objective, let's talk and let's try to scale things down. If that doesn't work, I think we'll have to respond in a robust way." Hosted on Acast.
