U.S. President Donald Trump said Sunday that he agreed to postpone the planned 50 percent tariff on imports from the EU until July 9. Former Swedish Prime Minister John Fredrik Reinfeldt reflected on current geopolitical shifts in an exclusive interview with CGTN's Tian Wei. He hit out at the Trump administration's confrontational approach toward Europe. Reinfeldt said tariff wars are outdated and called for a stronger, more united Europe to navigate great power tensions. He emphasized bridge-building through mutual respect and curiosity – values, he believes, are essential in our increasingly divided world.
