      EU has been pushing for tariff cuts for decades but the US doesn’t want to comply with the most simple conditions.

      >The US has sent the EU its standard terms for a deal, which includes making it easier for US companies to invest in the EU, reducing regulation and accepting US food and product standards. It also wants national digital taxes abolished. The EU response – It has offered to discuss mutual recognition of standards, smoothing procedures for food and animal trade, and how to ensure imports complied with international labour rights and environmental protection standards, a key US demand.

      “Smoothing procedures for food and animal trade” ? Is that an indication of moving towards US food and standards ?

    4. >The US has sent the EU its standard terms for a deal, which includes making it easier for US companies to invest in the EU, reducing regulation and accepting US food and product standards. It also wants national digital taxes abolished.

      So let me translate that for you:

      “We the United States are the only country allowed to define food and product standards and we are the only nation allowed to determine which companies get taxed for what. As such we expect you to be a good little vassal state and bend the knee to your imperial betters”

    5. trump politically needs to win this argument, because he had to step back against china. two times losing would be a big fall for his ego.

      Context: Trump issued a “[TRUTH](https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114556968834547173)” threatening 50% tariffs on the EU.

      “The European Union, which was formed for the primary purpose of taking advantage of the United States on TRADE, has been very difficult to deal with. Their powerful Trade Barriers, Vat Taxes, ridiculous Corporate Penalties, Non-Monetary Trade Barriers, Monetary Manipulations, unfair and unjustified lawsuits against Americans Companies, and more, have led to a Trade Deficit with the U.S. of more than $250,000,000 a year, a number which is totally unacceptable. Our discussions with them are going nowhere! Therefore, I am recommending a straight 50% Tariff on the European Union, starting on June 1, 2025. There is no Tariff if the product is built or manufactured in the United States. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

    8. Is the cheeto-flavoured gelatinous cube still confusing VAT with tariffs?

      You can’t negotiate with non-sapients.

      Don’t buy American very easy, who wants their trash food anyway.

      The deal means we have to cut regulations. He is trying to force a godamn customs union to cut regulations. It will not happen.

    11. US food standards allowed fluoride poisoning for decades, no thank you.

    12. scarab1001 on

      The US spends so much effort trying to get any country to accept it’s poor food standards.

      Why doesn’t it use that effort and just produce decent food of an acceptable quality?

    13. StrangerConscious637 on

      The US is our enemy now… we have to live with this. Russia and the USA hate us Europeans because we live a better life.

    14. So basically, the big Trump donors are pushing for him to pressure EU to lower, or outright eliminate food and produce regulations, so they can sell their sugar rich, antibiotic pumped, chemically treated animal produce directly here. I truly hope EU will not compromise on that, not one concession on that point. Wellbeing of EU citizens should have priority over any potential investment from a US company. Besides, we don’t need any more of Trump degenerates in the EU, we have enough of our own.

      I mean. We all saw how Trumps tarrif war with China went. Turns out he can be waited out. So why not just slab tarrifs on the US as well and wait him out?

      Enjoy the EU Anti-Coersion Instrument, that hits eventually to banks, services, patent IPs etc.. there is plenty to go with.

      Somebody give him a bribe. We have the best boats and planes.

    19. I really really hope the EU doesn’t fold to the US. But to be honest that’s what I expect

    20. Do it and move on.

      Ban their big tech and ASML exports to the USA and sabction chips made on such maschines.

    21. hmtk1976 on

      Idiot speaking. And he wants to poison us substandard American with foodstuffs.

      So please NO!

      I hope Europe will give a solid Fck Off to this orange head

      If US is not happy about trade barriers, they can send an application to join the EU

    24. portaperro on

      They don’t want to negotiate. They want to break up the EU. They refuse to negotiate or deal with the whole EU as a trading partner, they want to deal with each country individually. If you want proof, check out what Bessent said: “the EU has a collective action problem…it’s 27 countries but they’re being represented by 1 group in Brussels. The underlying countries don’t even know what the E.U. is negotiating on their behalf.” — https://x.com/townhallcom/status/1925909032906178689

      Tariff issues aside, it really bugs me that he’s quoted as saying VAT taxes…

    26. HermesTundra on

      We’d buy their cars but they keep sending ferries. We’d eat their food if it were safe to consume.

      It tracks well enough that Trump thinks you can make sales without a product to sell.

    27. JustDutch101 on

      I’ll literally would go to war not to have to accept USA’s food standard.

    28. I_hate_ElonMusk on

      Trump announcing a new tax to make Americans be even more sad and poor. Amazing news.

    29. 14_In_Duck on

      If you are assuming the position as the world leader in food and produce standard, you should provide data to back up your claim. The US are not in the position to dictate any standard in this realm whatsoever. It is ludicous.

      No, piss off. We’re not having your shitty excuse for beef and chicken
