Financial markets were given a brief reprieve on Wednesday when US president Donald Trump decided to pause duties on dozens of countries to allow for negotiations. Macron describes the pause as fragile, saying Europe must continue to work on all the necessary countermeasures and mobilise all the levers available to protect itself.
