PRAGUE, July 14 (Xinhua) -- A 30-percent tariff imposed by the United States on imports from the European Union (EU) could slow Czech economic growth by 0.4 percentage points from August this year and by 1.1 percentage points in 2026, the Ministry of Finance said on Monday.

Economic growth would thus reach 1.6 percent this year, and 1.3 percent in 2026, according to an estimate by the ministry.
