Trump's UK Visit

[Stooo]

The US and EU have agreed to avoid an all-out trade war and work to lower tariffs, in talks that US President Donald Trump hailed as "a very strong understanding".

He and European Commission chief Jean-Claude Juncker announced a "new phase" in EU-US relations, after Wednesday's meeting at the White House.

Mr Trump's threat to impose tariffs on European cars was put aside.

The EU plans to buy more US liquefied natural gas (LNG) and soybeans.

A joint statement said the two leaders agreed to "work together toward zero tariffs, zero non-tariff barriers, and zero subsidies on non-auto industrial goods".

US import tariffs of 25% on steel and 10% on aluminium, imposed in March, will however remain in place.

Trump made the EU blink. He's a bit of a gambler, which explains all of his bankruptcies, but he also has a short memory, which people like that need.

He throws shit against the wall and sees if it sticks. If it doesn't, he moves on and tries something else.

Probably not the most stable way to run a country, but it's far more exciting.

Trump established EU sanctions, the EU returned the favour. Trump blinked...

That's another way if looking at it I guess. We do agree on who threw the first punch.

Americans are so easily convinced of anything. I've witnessed it myself on US posting sites, they grasp at anything that looks favourable and make out it is real or is definitely happening. Like Trump draining the swamp or being for the people rather than the 1 percent.

No doubt the future promises may never materialize
Does that change the concessions both sides made?

Should the beeb not have mentioned that both sides want to work towards zero tarriffs?
