This makes no sense. Belgium, Switzerland, and Ireland are not going to force corporate offices out and even if they did that would not change the tariffs. Corporations are not going to move corporate headquarters due to the tariffs because the tariffs have nothing to do with the location of corporate offices.

The tariffs are on goods being brought into the country, regardless of where the corporate headquarters of the manufacturer resides.
