Plans are being put in place across Europe for the possibility of Donald Trump winning the US election. 

Europe Correspondent Catherine Field says the European Union has already set up a special taskforce prepared for next week's election. 

She told Mike Hosking the officials have concern over the former president's potential policies, including pulling out of supporting Ukraine. 

Field says they also fear across the board trade tariffs of up to 20% on all European goods going into the US.
