Trumps #Zölle treffen vor allem die Ärmsten. Die #EU sollte jetzt die #WTO stärken, Partnerschaften im Globalen Süden vertiefen & mit Gegenmaßnahmen nicht die Falschen treffen, sagen @cbrandi.bsky.social & @timvogel.bsky.social in einem neuen @table.media -Gastbeitrag: table.media/africa/stand...

🎉 My very first op-ed just got published in German media! In Table.Briefings, Clara Brandi and I explore the implications of Trump’s proposed “reciprocal” tariffs (for 90-days reduced to a flat additional 10% for most countries) for Least Developed Countries (LDCs).

When I read the first posts about how the Trump administration calculated its “reciprocal tariff rates” I couldn’t believe it. So, I jumped into the spreadsheets to check for myself. By now, the formula has been confirmed. As expected, these tariffs are not “reciprocal tariffs” in the slightest.

Frederik Stender and @timvogel.bsky.social, both @idos-research.bsky.social , argue in this opinion piece in #GlobalPolicyJournal that it is time for the EU to adopt a more proactive and self-confident approach to #trade and put ‘open strategic autonomy’ into practice. Read more: t1p.de/h3v2k

A swift and bold renewal of the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) is needed to deliver on meaningful growth opportunities for sub-Saharan African countries — but its future has never been more uncertain. #EconSky #Development #InternationalCooperation #TradePolicy #africa #agoa

Last week, we had the privilege of welcoming over 50 researchers and practitioners to @idos-research.bsky.social in Bonn for our 2nd Africa in the Global Economy conference. It was a lively event filled with very interesting presentations and great discussions.

Life is good when you are in Florence! Many interesting discussions on non-economic objectives in trade policy between academics and policymakers at the World Trade Forum at the EUI. Also focused on the impact on developing countries and unilateral actions by the EU. #WTF2023 #EconSky
