BRUSSELS, April 1 (Reuters) - The European Union will be ready to retaliate against U.S. trade tariffs with strong countermeasures if needed, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Tuesday.
"Our objective is a negotiated solution. But of course, if need be, we will protect our interests, our people, and our companies," von der Leyen said in a speech in the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
"We do not necessarily want to retaliate. But if it is necessary, we have a strong plan to retaliate and we will use it."
