This constant threat of tariffs is getting ridiculous. Now Europe really needs to stand up and not let itself be bullied. There are anti coercion instruments, counter tariffs and other tools to be used if necessary. Solidarity 🇬🇱

Finally some good news. Important for jobs, investment, cooperation and the defence of rule based trade. Strong geopolitical signal.

Loved joining @ceciliamalmstrom.bsky.social, Julie Robbins (Earthquaker), and John Mlynczak (NAMM) on @piie.com’s Trade Winds.
