Davey on tariff pause: this is Trump's Liz Truss moment

9 Apr 2025

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to news that Donald Trump has paused higher tariffs against most countries for 90 days, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said:

"This is Donald Trump's Liz Truss moment. He's been forced into an embarrassing climbdown.

“Now we need to get him to go further and get rid of his remaining reckless tariffs. That means an economic coalition of the willing and uniting with our allies.”
