We should have free, open trade with our allies.
With non-allies, we should have reciprocal tariffs with a preference towards free trade.
With adversaries, we should not engage in trade with.
We shouldn't be reliant on China, for example, for manufacturing essential goods and components. Europe never should have been reliant on Russia for energy.
