- US President Donald Trump has hinted the European Union (EU) could be next to face tariffs, after he applied 25% levies on goods from Mexico and Canada along with an additional 10% tax on imports from China.
Trump told the BBC that tariffs on EU goods imported into the US could happen "pretty soon".
On trade with Britain, he said "The UK is out of line. But I'm sure that one, I think that one, can be worked out."

The UK needs to be wary, we here in Canada thought we had a trade agreement with the US, signed by Trump himself. Turns out that doesn't mean anything to him..
you and mexico had an agreement until you became a vassal for china to bypass sanctions lol get a grip - perhaps begin by no longer locking people out of their bank accounts.
And Canada ACTUALLY has good relationship with the US, we sell them grossly discounted raw materials, oil, energy, water. We've been there by there side for every major war or internal struggle. No country as far as I know had ever had a more peaceable and easy going neighbor as Canada is to the US, and Trump is threatening to rape us.
Don't deal with USA then ,see how that goes for you 😂
If he signed an agreement, and then he broke it you are in for a lot of money in your country
@@osmanfadil2451what you on about
Business acumen? The guy has been bankrupt 7 times. Stop sucking up to him and start STANDING up to him.
I think he was being politely "sarcastic "
Anyone who can bankrupt casinos has a rather unique set of business skills...
@@darrylwood1220 sorry you are perhaps a little too optimistic. Sycophantic is perhaps a more apt description. Donald Trump simply does not possess business acumen
@@jonholland6067 I concur. I'm sick of people, like the guy in the interview, capitulating and worse still cuddling up with the vile, narcissistic felon. He should be in a cell now, not enjoying all the trappings of the most powerful office in the democratic world.
@@jonholland6067 agreed.
European leaders can avoid American tariffs by flattering Trump on his amazing hair.
Trump will say, "Thank you", now pay your tariffs.
Yes, by repeating ‘business acumen’
Not sure you'll get a balanced view from the BBC as they receive substantial funds from the EU, and have just lost their funding from USAID... why TF was USAID funding the BBC????
Or by his amazing tan (from the sun of course)
@@atTheHopYou still haven't understood who pays tariffs?
_" ...appeal to Donald Trump's _*_business acumen_*_ "_ - At this point we are just being trolled...
Absolutely. It's pathetic how they suck up rather than stand up to the 7 times bankrupt, eternally grifting felon.
he wanted to say ego but, well we all know why
@@TheTruthHzJust exactly how many boxes of tissues have you been through since Jan 20th?
Is it just me, or is Trump even more erratic than he was in his first term?
his first term wasn't as bad as people say.
No, not erratic. More focused.
Nope, he now has a pretty sound plan and is wasting no time implementing it.
Dementia is a progressive disease.
Completely erratic, he governs from his gut with no info and with complete disregard to rules, he has been this way for 40 yrs, nothing new.
Never in my life have I ever seen a country work so hard to undermine their own alliances.
US or UK?
The UK is doing a bang-up job of screwing over their own citizens with the legal immigration have fun with all your goat lovers and you're grooming grape gangs
@@Stephanieforbeshamilton I should have clarified that part....I mean the US.
You mean the UK right? Our current dictator hates the native population and it's western allies
@@Sa-v3wyou didn’t have to, everyone with a brain knows
Sure let's make everything even more expensive. Great idea.
Does that make billionaires and politicians richer? It usually does....
The relationship with the US is very good... Yeah that's what we thought too until it suddenly wasn't 🇨🇦
How long until he realizes it hurts US more than Europe
You're kidding, right. He lacks both the intellectual capacity and the desire to accept that.
He knows, he knew it with Canada as well. He’s playing hard ball to impress his followers but like what happened with Canada he’ll chicken out when things get bad.
After all he doesn’t want to be the president who declared war on his allies for no reason causing the collapse of his country

Trump's business acumen? Hilarious.
Politicians around the world know how to appeal to the felon to get what they want.
"Trump's business acumen". How to start with loads of money, avoid tax, bankrupt yourself repeatedly, end up with less than what you'd have had if you just invested it with a passive fund, and then get on TV. Amazing.
Lol. Just promise him what you're doing right now. You win. Ask Mexico and Canada.
Lol.
Lol.
The world needs to quit playing along with this buffoon - respond with 200% tariffs

Damn where would I get all my artificially dyed foods 🥺
I'm going to look into labels for a week or so while I shop and change my shopping habits in order to remove as much "made in America" as possible 👍

not the uk but if it does small businesses are done for
The world fear tariff this bringing everyone to their knees
And it's working 100%
@DaveAmade Yeah he seems to like people on they're knees just ask Stormy Daniels ! 👍
@XDY8 100% 👍
EU need not worry. Within hours of imposing tariffs Trump will hold it for 30 days.
A pack of golf balls and a lollipop will make him pause them.
Bring it on Trump - we'll match you dollar for dollar.
I really which you good luck with that one LOLOL.
Scotland actually voted to stay in the EU. And they want to be independent. We should start working on that. Ireland also wants to be reunited.
Ireland has a greater chance of being reunited than Scotland getting independence.

@@happyjonn9242
England was created by the Anglo-Saxon invasion of Great Britain. In German, “England” still means thin land. That's pretty accurate.
EU gonna hit them back with tariff.
EU, stand up to this monster, you are bigger and better than the US will ever be.
You need help.
The EU has tariffs on everyone else’s so why don’t you have ago at them?
No need to stand up, Trump will fold. Look at Canada and Mexico. He's all talk, always has been.
@@LizardGulpsHaha Mexico and Canada literally folded in 1 day
Unelected eu , good riddance
not trying to derail the convo but I gotta mention this book The Censored Path to Wealth, it’s wild how much it reveals
this does not change the fact that in Australia there are 48 million kangaroos and in Uruguay there are 3,457,380 inhabitants. So if the kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay,each Uruguayan will have to fight 14 kangaroos
Easy
Best comment ever 😂
Overused comment.
@@Puggalug why?
In Canada when an answer was necessary, it is easy to respond with counter tarrifs except lost jobs and transition to new jobs would be a more difficult problem which makes people wonder. What is the crises? It sounds like inefficiency and that America is carrying too much weight. Trade is not equal. It sounds like they are recinding on their economic relationship by forfeiting. The EU is going to look to Russia and now Iran for this sort of treatment because we are just like them to the Americans.
The expansionist threat USA proposing is just like what Russia is doing and that _ME country that cannot be named_ is doing in ME region and countries
It is bad advice to trade with an unstable character.
In his first term, he made USMCA trade agreement with Canada & Mexico, calling it "One of the best ever".
Now, when he wanted to launch tarrifs, he said "We had one of the worst trade agreements ever."
Profitable trade needs stability, not lying idiots.
The difference is fentanyl and the Cartels. China ship it Mexico makes it and Canada made it legal.
@@JD-yk3wb ...American smugglers take it from Canada into the US; the whole 0.2% of what Americans consume.
Should other countries deport Americans for that ?
@@JD-yk3wb
… and Americans consumes it. WHY??
If Trump imposes tariffs on any country, a unified Economic Defense Coalition (EDC) should respond with automatic reciprocal tariffs from all members, ensuring no nation is targeted alone. If Trump escalates, the EDC should impose a 25% tariff on all U.S. exports, restrict key American industries, and shift trade alliances away from the U.S. To counter economic coercion, the coalition should gradually reduce U.S. dollar dependence, diversify supply chains, and limit investment into U.S. markets. By coordinating economic retaliation and pressuring U.S. businesses and swing-state industries, the EDC can neutralize Trump’s trade bullying, protect global stability, and build a resilient, independent economic system.
Business acumen? Is that sarcasm or is Chris Southworth a comedian?
Thank you brexiters. 🎉🎉🎉 congratulations this is our best bet apparently

Has it even been 2 weeks? 😭
Couple days ago, it’s was us Canadians and Mexico in his sights. China too. Now Gaza to become an inclusive resort. Tariffs on EU now. Tomorrow, India because they don’t buy beef, Iceland because they are too icy, Turkey because they don’t want to be stuffed, Japan eats too much fish, Chile because it’s either too cold or not enough beans. I look forward to the movie once he’s kicked off. It’s called “it’s a mad, mad world” oh they did that already.
Actually, in one of the Mighty Ducks movies, it is revealed Greenland is the land full of ice, and Iceland is the “green” land. I know you meant this to be rhetoric, but you were wrong about Iceland.
Hey Painter I love your sense of humour. Thank you for a much needed laugh
Eh eh Hindus dont eat beef
My father was Chinese. One of the Chinese expression I heard him use certainly applies here too: "whoever deals with people like pawns will end up with an empty chessboard".
UK and Starmer must choose between EU or US with Greenland. Fencesittingtime for Starmer soon over.
Let's all hope Starmer is gone soon.
@@XDY8 He aint goin anywhere
And why should he
Youre not getting greenland.
American here; I really hope there can be some agreements amongst our friends.
Trump talked about America looking weak but he’s decided to attack all of our allies. Unfortunately, this might get much worst for everyone
F off. Everyone hates America now.
Putting a tariff on the UK feels like kicking a poor wounded puppy at this point. They have other problems.
Ya right. Good luck UK, you're going to need it.
It is astonishing how people don’t know how tariffs works.
Tariffs between countries are a result of years of negotiations. The rock bottom of tariffs are WTO* which are high tariffs, the negotiated tariffs are the better and takes years to negotiate.
*even worse that WTO is being out of WTO like North Korea is.
What Trump is doing is throwing away all those years of negotiations. Means all have to go back to worse positions, all have to be re-negotiated which takes years.
Another thing people don’t understand is, just because USA have lower tariff on import say cars doesn’t mean the counterpart have also same lower tariff on cars, there is no economic value on having same tariffs there is no need to negotiate for something to be same -> instead the negotiations is USA have lower tariff on cars and the counterpart have lower tax when importing orange juice produced in USA.
Negotiated tariffs is like (it is an example):
USA places lower tariff importing cars from UK
UK places lower tariffs importing orange juice from USA
You expect those ingrates to understand anything beyond 1+1.

We're far from being broke .
Europe should ditch the US.
Why was the BBC getting cash from USAID? 😂
I believe his tactics is not the words but the sense of doing this to know wt everyone wants
Maybe if Trumps food standards were up to the spec of other developed countries they would buy your food.
People would rather not eat food that is found to be hazardous for their health.
That is very wise since the US is the world leader in both obesity and stupidity.

I really hope he puts tarrifs on the UK next. I think it's the only thing that could start to wake us Brits up to our decades long vassalisation to the US empire. We haven't had a independent foreign policy since 1956.
Hes got about as much business acumen as my arse has the ability to play the flute.
I can fart the theme to mürder she wrote.
You must be hurting badly LOL
It would be fair if the US put tariffs on Britain and France first, until they agree to service the trillion in loans they haven’t paid a penny on since 1931.
What loans are you talking about. The only one I can find is a 50 year loan in 1946 which was fully reapid in 1996.
@ Britain borrowed from the US for WWI, with JP Morgan as the lead banker. Hansard confirms the amounts and the rate of interest. By 1964 Hansard notes the loan was increasing beyond Britain’s capacity to pay because no payments had been made since 1931, except a part payment in 1932, Volume 265 May 1965, also confirms the sovereign liability to pay.
Interestingly Britain could offset its loan liability to the US by calling on France to service its loan as agreed by the Churchill-Caillaux Agreement, for which it hasn’t paid a penny to Treasury since 1931.
@@slipperysalmon13indeed
Well I’m not being funny you haven’t paid your enormous debt to France which provided the United States military support firearms and equipment during the war of independence equivalent to 100 million pounds. if you want to go back that far and because the United States refused to pay that debt it triggered the French Revolution and war all across Europe and North Africa. If we’re going to add compound interest and damages then the debt the United States actually owes to France would be staggering.

The EU and UK should not be allowed to bring in infinity migrants from the 3rd world.
