Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez called on the U.S. to rethink its new tariffs on European goods and engage in dialogue with the European Commission, criticizing the move as "nonsense."

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez on Friday urged the United States to reconsider new tariffs on goods from Europe and open a dialogue with the European Commission to "stop this nonsense".

President Donald Trump said on Wednesday the United States will charge a 25% import tariff on all cars. On Thursday, the European Commission said the European Union was preparing a "robust, calibrated" response.

"Today, from here, I'd like to make a call again to the U.S. administration to reconsider and open dialogue with the European Commission and stop this nonsense," Sanchez said in a speech in Madrid.
