PARIS: French president Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday he had told U.S. president Donald Trump that his tariffs proposal was not a good idea.
“This is not the time to impose tariffs on us… Imposing tariffs disrupts value chains, creates an inflationary effect in the short term, and destroys jobs. So it’s not good for the U.S. or European economies,” he said.
