Italy’s President Sergio Mattarella expressed confidence on Monday that the European Union (EU) has the strength to effectively respond to potential U.S. tariffs.
“We have to be calm without feeding excessive concerns, because the EU has the strength to calmly, authoritatively intervene to counter an unjustified decision such as the imposition of tariffs,” Mattarella said. He added that while the EU should respond with determination, it should also act with measured authority.
Mattarella also highlighted the need for reforms within the EU, particularly in its decision-making processes, to better address both current and future challenges. “Swift and timely responses are needed. Europe needs to update itself,” he stated, underlining the importance of evolving to meet new global dynamics.
The Italian president's remarks come amid rising trade tensions and the threat of tariffs, underscoring the EU's commitment to protecting its economic interests while seeking improvements in its internal governance.
