Another reminder, altough this was expected, of why we have to buy European (not only from the EU tough, also from neighbouring countries and from the EEC): Trump says that will impose a 25% tariff on imports from the EU, apart from saying that the region was created to screw USA.

He has also said that tariffs to Canada and Mexico will go into effect on the 4th of April. So I am open too to buy goods and services from there (we have their communities promoting local buying because of this nasty movement linked in the right side of the community, if you are interested).

There will be countermovement, but it is important to start buying more european products and services to counter this.

Also to deprive them of currency sovereignity and tie them to the US dollar market, and also to weaken socialist parties in Europe.
