Harris to gather trade forum next week
Amidst escalating US-EU trade tensions and threats of tariffs, Ireland is intensifying preparations for a potential transatlantic trade war. Taoiseach Simon Harris is convening a trade forum, consulting with EU counterparts, and engaging with US businesses during his St. Patrick's Day trip. The focus is on protecting Irish interests, particularly concerning potential tariffs on Irish whiskey and the impact on pharmaceutical companies, while working with the EU on countermeasures to US tariffs on steel and aluminium.
