このコンテンツについて
Today, Europe faces one of its most daunting tariff challenges yet. Donald Trump’s second administration is pushing forward with a blanket 30% tariff on all European Union imports starting August 1st. According to a recent announcement from the White House made on July 11, this move represents an unprecedented escalation in US-EU trade relations.
Euronews reports that this development has rattled markets and European policymakers alike. With European growth expectations at a high, a sudden imposition of tariffs could reverse months of economic optimism and potentially trigger sharp corrections in equities and currency values. Goldman Sachs notes that if the full 30% tariff package is implemented and sustained, the effective US tariff rate on EU goods will jump to 26 percentage points—up from the current 8.5. This, the bank projects, could shave 1.2% off eurozone GDP by the end of 2026, with the deepest impacts hitting over the next few quarters.
For now, the European Union is showing restraint. The European Commission has confirmed that it will not implement countermeasures before the August 1st deadline, but behind the scenes, preparations are underway. EU Trade Representative Maroš Šefčovič has warned that tariffs at this level would make most transatlantic sales almost impossible, and Brussels already has a €72 billion list of potential retaliatory measures waiting in the wings in case negotiations collapse.
Meanwhile, political voices across Europe are demanding a firmer stance. Manon Aubry, the co-president of The Left group in the European Parliament, called the impending US tariffs “an unprecedented economic assault that will hammer European workers.” She and others argue for targeted and selective EU tariffs to restore symmetry in trade relations and protect the European social model, rather than continuing, as they put it, to shield elites from accountability.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has struck a more measured tone, urging caution but warning the US administration not to underestimate the EU’s willingness to respond if needed. Still, the deepening uncertainty is already causing companies to front-load exports ahead of the tariff deadline, bracing for what could be a prolonged and costly trade standoff.
