Whats interesting here is exemptions can be granted on the basis of "national security" since that's the impetus for sanctions... however... Argentina...? Brazil...? But not the EU? 
More to that... Trump apparently is very upset that he can't negotiate bilaterally with EU members... apparently the concept of Trade Bloc is foreign to him. |
You act surprised that concessions made by foreign countries are being met with a relaxation of tariffs.
As for the EU trade bloc thingy, I'm pretty sure that is #fakenews. Trump probably has more experience in int'l business than all members on this forum combined. I find it humorous when people want to believe the worst about Trump so much that they let common sense go out the window.
