Elon Musk expressed his hope for 'zero tariffs' between the US and Europe, advocating for a free trade zone between the two regions. He also expressed support for greater freedom of movement between Europe and the US. Musk, who has been working to eliminate wasteful US public spending, made these comments during a video-link interview at a congress in Florence of Italy's right-wing, co-ruling League Party. Italy's Economy Minister also called for de-escalation with the US following Trump's tariff announcement.
