Trump’s Explosive Attack on EU: ‘European Union Was Formed to Screw the U.S.’ | 25% Tariffs Incoming

Trump’s Explosive Attack on the EU. In a scathing attack on the European Union, former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed that the EU was created to take advantage of the United States. Speaking at his first cabinet meeting since returning to the White House, Trump announced new tariffs, confirming a 25% tax on key European imports, including cars. The U.S.-EU trade deficit reached $235.6 billion last year, fueling Trump's push for aggressive trade measures. The European Union rejected his accusations, calling itself "the world's largest free market" and warning of immediate retaliation if tariffs are imposed. #TrumpVsEU #TradeWar #USTariffs #BreakingNews #DonaldTrump #EUPolitics #EconomicCrisis #TariffBattle #GlobalTrade #USNews #TrumpSpeech #EUTrade #AmericaFirst #Geopolitics #MarketImpact Also Read Donald Trump Administration Slashes 90% Of USAID Foreign Aid Contracts :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-administration-slashes-90-of-usaid-foreign-aid-contracts-4081813.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Says Zelenskyy To Visit White House On Friday, Will Finalise Minerals Deal Amid US-Ukraine Security Talk :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-zelenskyy-to-visit-white-house-on-friday-will-finalise-minerals-deal-amid-us-ukraine-sec-4081663.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Administration Orders Large-Scale Federal Job Cuts In Major Govt Restructuring :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-orders-large-scale-federal-job-cuts-in-major-govt-restructuring-4081639.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.152~GR.124~ED.346~
