In a letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Trump justified the tariffs by citing chronic trade deficits and national security concerns, arguing that the current relationship is “far from reciprocal.” Trump emphasized that if the EU or Mexico retaliate, he is prepared to increase the tariffs even further. French, German, Italian, and Scandinavian leaders have all expressed alarm, warning that these tariffs could disrupt economies and industries both in Europe and the US. According to France’s Association Nationale des Industries Alimentaires, the 30% tariffs would be “disastrous” for the French food sector, with particular concern among producers of cheese, wine, and dairy, all major EU exports to America.
In a significant development, the European Union announced it will delay its own retaliatory tariffs on US goods, previously scheduled to take effect today, in hopes that negotiations can produce a resolution before the August 1 deadline. Von der Leyen said, “We have always been clear that we prefer a negotiated solution. This remains the case, and we will use the time that we have now till the first of August.” The EU’s trade chief, Maros Sefcovic, stressed that while Europe is determined to seek a deal, the bloc is also preparing “well-considered, proportionate countermeasures” should negotiations fail. Sefcovic warned that the proposed US tariffs would make trade “almost impossible,” given that EU-US trade in goods and services is valued at around $2 trillion annually.
European leaders have continued to urge President Trump to extend negotiations, with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and French President Emmanuel Macron both emphasizing the importance of dialogue and warning against the risk of a damaging trade war. Denmark’s foreign minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen, put it bluntly: “If you want peace, you have to prepare for war.” Meanwhile, European trade ministers are meeting in Brussels to strategize and prepare for all possible outcomes, even as they reiterate that negotiation is their preferred course.
Listeners, these developments are unfolding rapidly and the stakes could not be higher. A 30% tariff would reverberate across agriculture, manufacturing, and consumer goods sectors on both continents, driving up prices and threatening jobs. For now, both sides are signaling openness to a deal, but if the August 1 deadline comes without resolution, EU countermeasures are ready to be deployed, and a new era of transatlantic economic tension could begin.
