Strasbourg (France), Jan. 19 (LaPresse) – “Tariff threats are not acceptable as a means to address issues” related to Greenland. “We must remember that the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership is the largest in the world, so there is a lot to lose economically, both for Europe but also for the U.S., its companies and its workers. Therefore, we must work to find a constructive solution to move forward, respecting international law and taking care of our important economic and political relations.” This was stated by EU Economy Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis upon his arrival at the Eurogroup meeting in Brussels. And is it the case to activate the anti-coercion instrument and the €93 billion package of counter-tariffs? “Intense consultations are under way at the moment and this week an extraordinary European summit will also be held to discuss precisely these issues and decide the EU’s political response. We have instruments at our disposal. At this moment, nothing is ruled out,” Dombrovskis added.
