Business Secretary Grant Shapps has renewed criticism of President Joe Biden’s multi-billion dollar package of green subsidies, warning it could mark a “dangerous” slide into protectionism.
Speaking at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, Mr Shapps said he did not believe the 430 billion US dollar (£350 billion) Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was intended to be protectionist but that could be the result if it was not amended.
