ECB Official Highlights Tariff's Inflation Disparity Between US and Europe

During his recent visit to Washington, Joachim Nagel, a key figure on the European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council and President of the Bundesbank, expressed his confidence that the inflationary effects stemming from tariffs would be more pronounced in the United States compared to Europe.

Nagel elaborated on the economic implications, noting, "The impact on economic growth, influenced by the scale of the tariffs, will notably affect Europe, with Germany facing significant consequences." This statement underscores the varying degrees of economic resilience and vulnerability across the Atlantic.
