EU Warns of US Division Tactics, Urges Unity

0:00From the Daily News Now Network, this is Global News Today. European Union Foreign Policy Chief Kaja Kalaas stated that the United States wants to divide Europe and does not like the European Union. She made these comments in an interview with the Financial Times, published on Friday, March 13. This comes after more than a year of rocky trans-Atlantic ties. This week, the Trump administration started trade investigations into the European Union along with countries like China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Mexico. Officials cited unfair trade practices, and these nations could face new tariffs as early as this summer. This follows a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that limited parts of the president's earlier tariff plans. Kalaas pointed out that the U.S. strategy reminds her of tactics used by the European Union's rivals. She urged the U. Countries to avoid one-on-one deals with the Trump administration. Instead, she said they should negotiate as a united bloc, since that makes them equal

EU leaders are stressing unity to handle the challenges ahead. Please do our sponsor for helping bring you this episode. Layback, press play, let the pillow do the rest, sound meets comfort.
