Trump’s tariffs will impact more than just the price of consumer goods. Trade alliances are beginning to shift. ‘If you're pragmatic enough, you can strike a deal with anybody’, says Piotr Krajewski. ‘But the EU’s dealmaking must remain transparent,’ he adds. Krajewski wrote his thesis on power dynamics in the EU’s trade policy.

De invoerheffingen van Trump hebben niet alleen gevolgen voor de prijzen van producten.

Luchtvaart is een vervuilende bezigheid: Iemand die van Lissabon naar New York vliegt en terug, veroorzaakt ongeveer evenveel uitstoot als een gemiddelde EU-burger doet door zijn huis een heel jaar te verwarmen. Sinds 1992 maakt de EU wetten en beleid om de uitstoot van de luchtvaart aan te pakken, maar ondertussen heeft de uitstoot door de luchtvaart recordhoogtes bereikt. Hoe kunnen we dit inperken?
