Donald Trump will likely use tariffs as a trade negotiation tactic, focusing on countries like China and Europe where the US has large trade deficits, said World Economic Forum (WEF) President and CEO Borge Brende in an interview with CNBC-TV18 at Davos.<\/p>\n

\nWhile tariffs may serve as a bargaining tool, Brende believes it is essential for Trump to outline a clear economic policy to sustain growth and control inflation.<\/p>\n

\nTrump recently discussed trade and other issues in a call with Chinese President Xi Jinping, signaling the start of renewed negotiations.<\/p>\n

\nIn addition to trade, Brende noted that Trump\u2019s administration will focus on tackling inflation and immigration. \u201cWe will see very soon some steps on the immigration side, but on the inflation, it is more of a mixed thing. So he will need to also then share what is his economic policy to keep the growth going, but also making sure that inflation is not coming back\u201d.<\/p>\n

\nBrende drew parallels with Trump\u2019s earlier presidency, where tariffs were employed as leverage in trade talks. The impact of such measures on inflation remains to be seen, he said.<\/p>\n
