“That is what I see, that Donald Trump will buckle under pressure, that he corrects his announcements under pressure,” German economy minister Robert Habeck said Thursday.
Elsewhere, outgoing German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said he believed the latest tariff decisions by Trump were “fundamentally wrong,” according to a CNBC translation.
On Wednesday, Trump imposed 20% levies on the European Union, including on the bloc’s foremost economy Germany.

You want to play chicken with a New Yorker who is on his second term and independently wealthy to start with? Yeah, okay. Go right ahead there, Hans Gruber.

Of the US total trade deficit of $1T+, China is far and away the largest proportion of that at 35%.
Euro countries as a whole add to about 20% of the total annual US trade deficit. They are too small to represent any pressure.

“They definitely need to pay for their own defense, too.”
Don’t forget they need to pay for their offence in Ukraine as well.
