PierPaolo Bombardieri, the general
secretary of the UIL trade union confederation, said Thursday
that 60,000 jobs are at risk after President Donald Trump
announced hefty tariffs on imports to the United States.
"The duties are a problem for the whole country," Bombardieri
said during a UIL event in Pescara.
"We export goods worth 70 billion euro from Italy and the
fallout could be heavy both economically and in terms of
employment, especially in some sectors such as the automotive,
fashion, mechanics and agribusiness ones.
"60,000 jobs are at risk".
