Trump talks tariffs. The EU talks free trade with the rest of the world. – POLITICO
Donald Trump is turning his back on free trade and, with it, the €1.6 trillion transatlantic trade relationship. That's motivating the European Union to do trade deals with just about everyone else.
The United States accounts for 13 percent of world trade. The EU, the world’s largest single market spanning 27 nations and 450 million people, accounts for around 16 percent — and is looking to extend its lead.
“Countries are lining up to work with us,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has told POLITICO.
