Donald Trump announces plans to hit the UK, Denmark and other European countries with a 10% tariff on “all or any goods” exported to the US from 1 February
In a post on Truth Social, the US president says these will remain in place until “such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland”
That’s what I was thinking as well. If the Americans are as incompetent as they look we’ll see a surge of European exports from Poland or Spain rather than Germany or France. It may suffice to just drive the same goods to Gdansk and ship it from there…?
We don’t have to drive goods anywhere. It’s all on paper.
If the German company shipping German goods from a German harbor says that the goods actually belongs to their Polish subsidiary, that’s Polish goods.
Since most European businesses already own a letterbox in Ireland or Luxembourg, I suppose they can use those for their exports in such a scenario.
