EU, Mexico open to trade negotiations after latest Trump tariffs announced

6 1
saturday

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, in response to President Trump's latest tariff announcement, say they are open to trade talks but won't rule out taking countermeasures.

Trump in his Saturday letters to von der Leyen and Sheinbaum announced a 30 percent tariff rate on goods imported into the U.S. beginning Aug. 1, after an initial 90-day pause and deadline delay lapses on the import taxes.

"Imposing 30 percent tariffs on EU exports would disrupt essential transatlantic supply chains, to the detriment of businesses, consumers and patients on both sides of the Atlantic," the European Union (EU) leader wrote in a statement.
