If America wants to see how successful tariffs can be in the automotive industry, they should look to Ukraine, where they were first implemented in the early 1990s. The goal was to protect domestic car producers after the collapse of the USSR, which saw an economic crisis followed by an influx of foreign vehicles. “In the best years, the Ukrainian car market had 623,000 new cars and was Europe's No. 7 car market, according to Autoconsulting,” @timkmak’s Counteroffensive reports. “Today, it is almost zero.” The only hope for the resurrection of production? Making tanks for Ukraine’s army.

Tariffs destroyed Ukraine’s automotive industry. Is the U.S. next?
The Trump administration recently imposed tariffs on imported cars. In Ukraine, this policy has already proved ineffective amid its inability to develop its local industry.Myroslava Tanska-Vikulova (The Counteroffensive with Tim Mak)

Oleksii Makeiev, Botschafter der Ukraine:
Freiheit muss kriegstüchtig sein. Demokratie muss wehrhaft sein.Die Abschreckung des russischen Aggressors beginnt mit dem Sieg über die russische Vertretung im Deutschen Bundestag.Denn Freiheit ist kein Witz.
Europa lebt, weil Europa immer für die Freiheit kämpft.
Der Kampf für die Freiheit geht weiter. Und wir werden ihn gewinnen.
Weil Freiheit bedeutet, Träume in Ziele zu verwandeln. Weil Freiheit mehr ist als wir alle. Weil Freiheit immer einen Kampf wert ist.
Freiheit ist eine Herausforderung. Und Schwäche ist dieser Herausforderung nicht gewachsen. Freiheit erfordert Stärke.
Unsere Welt ist imperfekt. Aber das Futurum dieser Welt bestimmen wir.
Es lebe Europa. Es lebe die Freiheit. Slawa Ukrajini.

President of Poland Andrzej Duda:
"Russia has shown in an unambiguous way that, unfortunately, this evil is still there, this Russian imperialism. I always emphasize this - it doesn't matter whether it's Tsarist, whether it's Soviet, Stalinist, Brezhnevist, or, last of all, Putinist imperialism. It is always the same imperialism that wants to enslave other nations, take their lands, take their natural resources, that wants to exploit them."

Prime Minister of Slovakia Robert Fico said that during a phone call on tariffs with Ursula von der Leyen, she called him "a complete idiot."
"She absolutely tore into me: 'Robert, what have you done? Why on earth did you negotiate with Trump like that? Are you OK?' She berated me for half an hour, [saying] that I am a complete idiot for being there, for talking to Musk, and for not putting it out there for the world to see," he said.
