Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the potential consequences of President Trump's trade policies, particularly the threat to impose significant tariffs on EU goods, which could push the global economy to the brink of collapse [1][3]. Group 1: Impact of Trump's Policies - Trump's unilateral trade policies and protectionism have been a consistent theme since his first term, undermining international organizations like the WTO [3]. - The current situation may lead to a resurgence of trade protectionism reminiscent of the 1930s, exacerbating global economic instability [1][3]. Group 2: WTO's Role and Challenges - The WTO has been hampered by the U.S. blocking the appellate body, making it difficult to enforce global trade rules [3][4]. - There is a growing concern that if the U.S. continues to violate trade rules without consequences, other countries may follow suit, leading to a breakdown of the global trading system [3][4]. Group 3: Proposed Solutions - The article suggests that WTO members must unite to reject Trump's trade aggression, potentially considering the expulsion of the U.S. from the organization as a necessary measure [4][5]. - Although there is no precedent for expelling a member from the WTO, mechanisms exist that could allow for such action if a two-thirds majority agrees to amend the agreement [4][5]. Group 4: Economic Consequences for the U.S. - If expelled from the WTO, the U.S. would face severe economic repercussions, including loss of preferential tariff access to global markets and potential punitive tariffs [5]. - The U.S. would also lose access to critical markets for service exports and protections for intellectual property, which are vital for its economic success [5].
