European leaders are grappling with the looming threat of tariffs from the U.S., as President Trump signals an aggressive stance towards the EU and UK. Amid discussions about potential trade wars, EU officials express concern over the impact of these tariffs on both sides, emphasizing the need for a united response. French leaders caution that America would face significant consequences in a trade conflict, while others warn that such moves could undermine the already fragile unity within Europe. Trump admits that Americans may experience some economic pain due to his tariffs but insists that it will be worth it. As tensions rise, the prospect of a transatlantic trade war grows increasingly real, potentially benefiting countries like China. EU leaders vow to retaliate if attacked and continue to strategize their responses to protect European interests.
