European Union Prepared to Launch Retaliatory Trade Measures at U.S.
07/07/2017 - European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker reiterated promises that the E.U. would retaliate against the U.S. if it moves to impose new unilateral steel import restrictions.
“We will respond with countermeasures if need be, hoping that this is not actually necessary,” Juncker said, according to The Washington Post. “We are prepared to take up arms if need be,” he said, speaking to reporters at the Group of 20 Summit that’s underway in Germany.
In the first day of meetings, leaders of most of the world’s largest economies put on a nearly united front against the U.S., particularly in regard to climate and trade policies, The Post reported.
