Meinl-Reisinger in ZIB2: US tariffs as a “classic loose-loss situation”

The government has submitted a work program until summer. Foreign Minister Beate Meinl-Reisinger (NEOS) was a guest at Armin Wolf in ZIB2 on Wednesday evening. Is the current acting of the United States still in customs policy or rather a trade war? “I see it that way, you have to name it clearly,” replies the Foreign Minister. It is a “classic loose-free situation”, for other countries, but also the USA itself. The EU reacted correctly. Trump’s policy is based on using his economic and military strength to enforce his interests. This is particularly difficult for small countries like Austria.
