07:54 GMT 03.04.2025 (Updated: 08:59 GMT 03.04.2025) US President Donald Trump referred to his move to slap tariffs on 185 countries and territories as a “declaration of economic independence.”
"We are prepared to respond, we are finalizing the first package of countermeasures in response to tariffs on steel and we are now preparing for further countermeasures to protect our interests and our business if negotiations fail," European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said at a press conference in Samarkand.
