In this episode of The Decisive podcast, host Kristen Hallam engages in an insightful discussion with S&P Global Market Intelligence experts Shuchita Shukla and Dijedon Imeri about the implications of potential U.S. tariffs on the European Union's economy.

Recorded shortly after significant tariff announcements by the US government, the episode delves into how these measures could reshape trade dynamics, impact growth forecasts, and influence the EU's decision-making process. The conversation also explores historical context, comparing current challenges to past trade disputes during President Donald Trump's first administration, and highlights the varying vulnerabilities of EU member states.

Listeners will gain an understanding of the potential retaliatory strategies the EU might employ, the broader economic ramifications of heightened trade tensions, and the future of European integration in light of these developments. Tune in for a rich analysis of the intersection between global trade and the European economy.
