If somehow the FAA approves it while the EASA does not I can see the current US administration using the "Europe is protectionist" rhetoric. Nobody knows where we will go from there, I can only tell that then it came to car tariffs similar tactics used by the US seem to have "won", as I read yesterday that the EU is ready to eliminate tariffs on US car imports.

EASA is not going to approve the MAX for political expediency, the resulting scandal would end the existence of EASA. There is no tariff in the world that the US can apply that would convince the EU to commit such an act of self-harm.

where did you read this? The latest I've heard, the EU was ready to go further with the tariff wars[0].
