Macron Calls on EU to Deploy Trade ‘Bazooka’ Against Trump Tariff Threats. French President Emmanuel Macron is urging the European Union to take a hard line against Donald Trump’s latest tariff threats, calling for the use of the EU’s powerful Anti-Coercion Instrument — often described as its trade “bazooka” - According to Politico. Macron says the tool should be activated after Trump warned he could impose tariffs on European countries that oppose his plans involving Greenland. The mechanism would allow the EU to retaliate with measures such as restricting trade, investment, public contracts and intellectual property access. EU ambassadors are now holding emergency talks, while Macron insists that “tariff threats are unacceptable” and that Europe will respond in a united and coordinated way. The dispute is also casting doubt on a recent EU–US trade deal, which could now be blocked by the European Parliament. As NATO allies voice solidarity with Greenland and Denmark, tensions are rising between Washington and Europe, raising fears of a deeper transatlantic rift.
