Europe is going after Trump's Red States for Tarriffs

Interestingly enough, the EU has imposed tariffs in the past, and it never made national news or linked on HN:

-Airbus-Boeing Dispute (2019-2024): Stemming from a long-running WTO case over subsidies, the EU imposed tariffs on $4 billion of U.S. goods in November 2020: -10% tariffs on U.S. aircraft (e.g., Boeing planes). -25% tariffs on ketchup, cheddar cheese, tractors, tobacco, and sweet potatoes. -Digital taxes on US tech companies -Agricultural Goods: 20-50% due to protective measures for EU farmers.

Yes, tariffs, despite all the trade agreements, have never quite gone away entirely. But it has been a while since we've had an administration try to make them a central element of trade policy and foreign policy.

What is YouTube Studio??

The personal space after login where you can manage stuff and eg upload videos. OP posted an internal link.

Now, this is something I wouldn't have expected! Better them than all of us!

That's Europe's normal practice for retaliatory tariffs, pretty much; the EC did similar during Trump 1.0.
