Trump threatens EU with 50% tariffs as Apple faces possible 25%

[bannork]

 

 

Mr Trump said of talks between his administration and the EU: "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."

"I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhones that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or any place else," wrote the president.

"If that is not the case, a tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the US."
