US president warns Europe on digital taxes
U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to impose a 100% customs duty on all goods imported from countries that levy a digital services tax on American companies, indicating that these tariffs would be implemented immediately after those countries enact such taxes and would exceed the existing trade agreements with them. This comes amidst strained trade relations between the United States and the European Union, despite the EU's withdrawal of tariffs on certain American goods as part of a trade agreement. The digital services tax is applied to the revenues of major tech companies from local users, aimed at ensuring these companies pay taxes in the markets where they generate income.
