The 15 year WTO battle is nearing an end. Later this year, possibly in the Spring time frame, final WTO appeals will run out. At that point, the WTO will authorize US tariffs against the EU in the amount of $22 BILLION.

It will make the current steel/aluminum case look insignificant. It will all be authorized by the WTO. President Trump needs to strike at the heart of Europe's exports, especially targeting German car exports.

To cap that off, the Trump Administration is targeting China's forced technology transfers. That could result in billions of dollars in tariffs against Chinese exports.

2018 is going to be a BIG year for Trump's America First policy!

Having flown in both, honestly, I generally like Airbus planes better. Maybe that is because the subsidy lets them install more expensive, comfortable seats?

The A319 is a better plane than the 737

I thought even if the sanctions were awarded, they would never be implemented, because both sides have too much to lose.

Airbus and Boeing both make great aircraft. Boeing does it cheaper. If not for the subsidies to Airbus they would die. When it comes to fuel burn, the 787 Boeing Dreamliner is top dog and will be top dog for some years to come.

If you think airbus is bad, wait for 3 years when Chinese C919 commercial aircrafts are airborne. They also design wider one C929 with Russia now.
