Europe should buy US goods if it
wants to avert a trade war with America, Foreign Minister
Antonio Tajani said Friday.
If Europe wants to avoid a trade war with Donald Trump, it must
buy more from the United States, increase defense budgets and
deregulate to strengthen the EU economy, Tajani, who is also
deputy premier, said in an interview with Politico.eu.
The Italian diplomatic chief recalled meeting Trump in 2017 when
he was president of the European Parliament, and said: "He is
much more pragmatic than you might think", adding that one way
to address and avoid the threat of tariffs is to create "a
virtuous climate" by purchasing more goods from the United
States.
