Hyundai’s executive has raised concerns that Chinese automakers, which have already gained significant market share in Europe, could pose a similar threat to the U.S. auto industry if existing tariffs and trade protections are removed. The warning highlights growing tensions over competition and the potential impact on domestic manufacturers.

The call underscores the stakes in ongoing trade negotiations and regulatory debates.
