US Tariffs: Germany Backs Cutting Tariffs On US Car Imports
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Thursday she would back lowering European Union tariffs on U.S. car imports, responding to an offer from Washington to abandon threatened levies on European cars in return for concessions.
“When we want to negotiate tariffs, on cars for example, we need a common European position and we are still working on it,” Merkel said. According to an industry source, the U.S. ambassador to Germany told German car bosses from BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen at a meeting on Wednesday that Trump could abandon such threats if the EU scrapped duties on U.S. cars imported into the bloc.
