The White House has warned the European Union that its plan to fight against U.S. tariffs would be a “grave mistake.”
After the European Commission announced potential tariffs on almost$ 112 billion of U.S. imports, including aircraft, earlier on Thursday, trade adviser Peter Navarro issued the warning that the organization would file a dispute with the World Trade Organization over President Donald Trump‘s” Liberation Day” duties and auto levies.
Navarro criticized the EU’s plan as not being “in the attention or the nature of negotiations that actually are going to be as effective as they often had get.”
Retaliation is never a, as they say in sport theory, it’s not the strong strategy, he said. The powerful approach for Europe and others to take is that the United States won’t tolerate injustice against its citizens and manufacturers.
Navarro declined to discuss the White House’s agreements with China over the weekend in Switzerland, nor with which nation the next business package will be reached, or when, during an impromptu press conference with reporters outside the West Wing.
Trump spoke with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Thursday night, and Navarro did support censure of the “free trade” agreement with the United Kingdom. 10 % tariffs are still imposed on the U. K. under this agreement.
The American people and National manufacturers are being abused by the program itself, he said,” and this is a restructuring.” What are we doing if you take the offer literally, not just take it in at face price? We are lowering trade restrictions to agriculture, as well as the currently being removed non-tariff restrictions.

Due to fears that the American business won’t purchase U.S. chlorinated chicken and pork using hormones, a large portion of the deal is unknown.
Let’s see what the business says, Navarro said. Our place is that the majority of these, or what they call phytosanitary requirements for agriculture, are just fraudulent tools used to sabotage what are incredibly high-quality American agricultural products, and it has always been that way.
