Kudlow Says Auto Section 232 Tariffs Off Table for Now

Chief White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow, in an interview with Bloomberg TV Jan. 10, responded to a question on where the administration is on tariffs on European autos, by saying: “As you can see, no actions have been taken.” When the interviewer pressed him on whether that means there will be no tariffs on European autos “as far as the eye can see,” he called that characterization fair, but then hedged. “The report was presented and no action was taken. I can't say that's forever. We're in constant bargaining and negotiating.”
