Trump's tariffs may lead U.S. allies to turn to China and India. U.S.-EU trade war affects fashion, alcohol, and wine industries. Tesla warns of potential retaliatory tariffs.

Former U.S. diplomat Wendy Cutler warns that U.S. tariffs may drive allies like the EU to strengthen ties with countries such as China and India. The EU's tariffs are expected to increase costs for various industries, including automakers and food producers. Vice President JD Vance supports President Trump's stance against the EU's tariff threats. Trump has imposed tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, and is considering levies on the EU. The threat of imposing 200 percent fees on European wines by Trump could negatively impact importers, distributors, retailers, and restaurants without benefiting U.S. producers. Many U.S. businesses, including Tesla, have expressed concerns about Trump's tariffs in a letter to the U.S. Trade Representative's Office.

The Trump administration faced two judicial setbacks on Thursday related to the layoffs of federal workers. U.S. District Judge James Bredar blocked the administration's order of mass layoffs of probationary federal workers, while another judge ordered the reinstatement of probationary workers who were let go in mass firings to shrink the federal government. The administration was found to have acted unlawfully by not notifying states before firing thousands of employees. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized the judges' decisions. Additionally, Russian President Putin expressed openness to a cease-fire but with certain conditions.
