About the Event

As Donald Trump embarks on his second presidential term, international trade relations are entering a new phase of uncertainty and confrontation. Trump's administration has swiftly imposed sweeping tariffs on imports from China and the EU, targeting critical sectors like technology and automotive. These moves have reignited fears of a prolonged global trade war, with China signaling firm resistance and Europe reassessing its own economic security strategies

This event will examine the evolving landscape of international trade, focusing on how tariffs, trade disputes, and shifting alliances are reshaping the global economy.

Through expert analysis and a moderated discussion, participants will gain strategic insights into how the EU, US, and China may realign their trade and economic policies in the face of renewed geopolitical tensions.

Join us for a critical discussion at a turning point for global economic diplomacy!
