Day: April 2, 2025

Europe has “a strong plan” for striking back at the United States in response to Donald Trump’s tariff hikes “if necessary,” a top official said Tuesday on the eve of a long-anticipated announcement of massive import levies by the US president.

For weeks, Trump has promoted April 2 as “Liberation Day” in America, when a number of hefty tariffs will be unveiled to implement his administration’s radical economic agenda. The United States has already announced a sharp increase in tariffs on all imports of steel, aluminum and cars.

“Europe has not started this confrontation,” Ursula von der Leyen, the head of the European Union’s executive, said in a speech. “We do not necessarily want to retaliate but, if it is necessary, we have a strong plan to retaliate and we will use it.”

Myanmar Earthquake: The death toll from the last week’s powerful 7.7-magnitude earthquake in Myanmar has risen to over 2,700, with over 4,500 people injured and many still missing, the country’s ruling junta said on Tuesday, according to Reuters.

Myanmar’s military leader Min Aung Hlaing, in a televised address on Tuesday, said that the death toll reached 2,719 and is expected to rise to more than 3,000. He said 4,521 people were injured, and 441 were missing. As rescue workers sift through the rubble of collapsed buildings, fears are mounting that the number of casualties will keep rising in the coming days.
