The European Commission, who coordinates EU trading policy, will offer members a list of American goods on Monday, which will be introduced for further duties on Monday.
In the coming days, EU countries will try to carry out the united front against Donald Trump’s tariffs, perhaps approved by the first set of target countermeasures against American imports. Reuters reported it.
It was noted that 27 EU countries face 25% of imported tariffs for steel, aluminum and cars, as well as “mutual” tariffs for 20% for almost all other goods. Trump’s tariffs cover about 70% of EU exports in the United States, with a total value of 532 billion euros.
According to the publication, the European Commission, which coordinates with the EU trading policy, will offer members a list of American goods on Monday where additional tariffs will be introduced later on Monday.
They can hold the goods up to $ 28 billion. The list includes American meat, cereals, wine, wood and clothing, as well as chewing gum, dental thread, vacuum cleaner and toilet paper.
In the case of tariffs in the coming days, the EU will be the third player after China and Canada, which responds to the increasing US trade.
One of the products that attracts more attention and has caused block disagreements is the bourbon. The commission set 50% of the tariff, forcing Trump to threaten 200% of a counter for alcoholic beverages from the EU if the block continues.
Remember, on April 2, Trump announced the introduction of large tariffs for imported goods. He called it America’s “Day of Liberation”.
According to European Commission leader Ursula Von der Lyan, tariffs US President Donald Trump declared “the world’s economy is seriously hitting.” The European Union is preparing steps in response.
