U.S. President Donald Trump has warned the UK and EU of potential tariffs, stating the UK is "out of line." He believes a trade deal with Britain is possible, despite plans to impose tariffs on EU goods due to a trade deficit. UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is meeting EU leaders to discuss trade and support for Ukraine. He aims to strengthen trading relations with the U.S. while addressing concerns over Trump's tariff threats, which could impact his discussions in Brussels. Trump has already announced tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, prompting fears of a global trade war. UK ministers remain optimistic about future trade with the U.S., while some call for talks on rejoining the EU customs union.
