"Decisive measures" to counter US tariffs will be necessary if no "fair" deal is reached with Washington to avert threatened tariffs against the EU, the German finance minister said Sunday.
Lars Klingbeil told the Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper that "serious and solution-oriented negotiations" with the US were still necessary, but added that if they fail, the EU would need "decisive counter-measures to protect jobs and businesses in Europe".
