The damage damage has been great since Donald Trump announced high import rates against China, Mexico and Canada this weekend. The plans may seem to be mainly about trade, but if you look further you can see that they are a vulnerable web of international cooperation. And the Netherlands is very dependent on that web.
Maarten and Marike are discussing today what Trumps threat entails. How do rates actually work? What is the possible economic and political damage? What hopes to achieve the new president of the United States? Is it better for other countries to hit back? How exceptional is what is happening in American history now? And what does it mean for the world order?
