The matter of the tariff war should be "left to the experts", the prime minister said, "while our attention and energy ought to be directed to Ukraine's EU membership".
"Yesterday, Hungary was the only EU member state that didn't support Brussels' counter-tariffs against the US. Last night, President Trump suspended tariffs for 90 days for those who didn't retaliate,"...
Minister Szijjártó said the retaliatory tariffs would result in significant price rises.
“We do not want high tariffs, we want low tariffs," said Minister Szijjártó.
Rather than curbing competition through tariffs, the EU should bolster the global competitiveness of the European vehicle industry, Minister Nagy said.
