Merkel: EU will retaliate against Trump tariffs

German Chancellor Angela Merkel said in a new interview Sunday that the European Union (EU) would follow Canada's move and forge ahead with its plan to implement counter-measures in response to President Trump's decision to levy tariffs on the 28-member bloc.

"We won't allow ourselves be ripped off again and again. We will act too," Merkel told German broadcaster ARD.

The chancellor also addressed concerns that Trump would hit back by implementing new tariffs on German vehicles, saying, "We will try to see if we can stop this from happening... And then hopefully the EU will respond again in the same unified way."
