We want to talk. We appreciate that you have brought this pause on so-called reciprocal tariffs, and we, in turn, are now pausing our proposed countermeasures in order that we have the maximum space to consult with our member States and consult with our industry and negotiate with the US. We are ready to make deals. Let's talk. My understanding is that the American tariffs on cars remain in place. The American tariffs, the 10% across the board remain in place, and everything related to the so-called reciprocal tariffs is suspended for 90 days. So in response, we are suspending our first wave of proposed countermeasures, for which we received a resounding mandate from our member states yesterday. And we will be taking this time to reflect, to analyze, to talk to our member states, to talk to our industry in order that we come forward with the best and most coherent strategy to protect the European Union, consumers, industry and Member States. Our approach has not changed. We are preparing for all outcomes. All our instruments are on the table. We want to talk to the Americans. We want to achieve deals that benefit both sides. We have offered them zero for zero on industrial products and goods. We believe we can reach all sorts of beneficial outcomes from both sides that would avoid the types of tariffs that we believe are harmful and counterproductive. So we are continuing all our preparations, and we will continue to talk to our member states, talk to our industry, and we remain ready to engage in a meaningful way with the US. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"The E.U.
