@msnbc: Political leaders from around the world have reacted with shock and dismay at President Trump's announcement of tariffs from between 10% and 54% against products from countries across the globe. Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, the EU's executive body, said the tariffs were a "major blow to the world economy." Her comments echo those of a number of other countries, which has expressed its opposition to the move and has warned it will take "resolute countermeasures" against the U.S. #politics #news #trump #tariffs #economy
