Five nations and EU urge Trump not to impose new airplane tariffs
- In early June 2025, five countries along with the European Union called on the Trump administration to avoid implementing additional national security duties on imported commercial aircraft and related components.
- This appeal follows the Commerce Department's May launch of a Section 232 investigation into aircraft imports that could lead to higher tariffs, amid existing 10% tariffs on such goods.
- Airlines, aerospace companies, and government officials have cautioned that additional tariffs may lead to increased airfare, jeopardize flight safety, and disrupt the aerospace supply network, while Boeing highlighted that its latest aircraft models feature over 88% content sourced domestically in the U.S.
- Documents revealed concerns from multiple countries and companies emphasizing that trade between the U.S. and EU, which has a $75 billion annual surplus, should remain tariff-free as shown by Boeing's May deal with Britain.
- The pressure to avoid new tariffs suggests ongoing efforts to maintain the 1979 Civil Aircraft Agreement's tariff-free regime, reflecting fears that escalating restrictions could destabilize the aerospace supply chain and markets.
