Statement
BCA’s Response to Trade Tariffs
In response, BCA emphasizes the need for a strategic and measured approach. Our key messages remain:
Diplomacy and free trade must remain our priority.
Do no harm. Do nothing that would make the situation worse or damage our economy in the long term.
Do better at home and abroad. We need to use this opportunity for action on economic resilience and independence.
