On the other hand in 2018 Europe managed to sort out LNG etc pretty quick.

I'm kind of surprised it hasn't been louder and faster after the tariffs came in, but we've already had investigation after investigation into monopoly practices, the EU is working on domestic payment processing. So the political will is there. I assume they're just quietly getting on with sorting it out.

Exactly. They know there's nothing to win by being vocal about it. But it's obvious that there has been a general shift within all of EU.

Is slightly disagree. Trump brought in the tariffs based on trade imbalances. Bringing services into the conversation would highlight that there isn't a trade imbalance. But then I'm not trying to guess what trump might do with any given input.
