Trump has threatened to impose 50% tariffs on imports from the E.U. It comes amid a broader souring of relations and after months of economic sparring.

The rebuke came after Trump said in a Friday post on his Truth Social platform that trade negotiations with Brussels were “going nowhere” and suggested he would slap a 50% blanket duty on all European goods entering the U.S. starting June 1.

The E.U., home to nearly 450 million people, is the world’s largest trading bloc and one of Washington’s top commercial partners. It exported more than $600 billion in goods to the U.S. last year while importing goods worth around $370 billion. [NBC News]

Trade must be fair!

Good Night, Patriots!
