Mexico criticised what it called Trump's "unfair deal" and insisted its sovereignty is non-negotiable, while the EU's chief, Ursula von der Leyen threatened to take "proportionate countermeasures", if needed. Both said they want to keep negotiating with the US.

Trump has warned he would impose even higher import taxes if either of the US trading partners decided to retaliate.
