Macron enlists Michelin and BMW chiefs on European car preference plan
Original: Macron tasks Michelin and BMW chiefs with forging a deal on European preference in the automotive sector
French President Emmanuel Macron has asked the heads of tyre maker Michelin and German carmaker BMW to work out a deal on European preference in the automotive sector. The move aims to favour European-made vehicles and components in EU policy as the industry faces competition from cheaper foreign imports, with details of the proposed arrangement yet to be spelled out.
Why now: European leaders are under pressure to protect the EU car industry from foreign competition and are actively seeking industrial agreements.
