Europe sets plans to hit back at Trump, impose tariffs on US goods
- The European Union plans to impose tariffs on up to 100 billion euros of US goods if trade talks fail by July 2025.
- This move responds to US President Donald Trump's tariff actions starting in March 2025, including a 20-percent levy on most EU goods described as "reciprocal".
- The EU has postponed some retaliatory tariffs worth 21 billion euros to allow negotiations while preparing a broader list including autos and planes valued at over 22 billion euros.
- EU trade chief Maros Sefcovic stated that 70 percent of EU exports face US tariffs between 10 and 25 percent and called the levies unjustified and harmful on both sides.
- If no agreement is reached, the EU will implement these tariffs, signaling readiness for escalation but continues to favor negotiations to avoid a full trade war.
