White House warns EU against retaliatory tariffs after countermeasure reveal

  • The European Commission launched a public consultation on May 8, 2025, proposing tariffs on about $107 billion of U.S. imports across the EU.
  • This move follows a 90-day truce set to expire on July 8, amid ongoing disputes over U.S. tariffs on EU steel and other goods and concerns about a potential tariff increase.
  • The consultation covers diverse U.S. products, including wine, aircraft, cars, chemicals, and machinery, and contemplates EU restrictions on $4.4 billion of exports like steel scrap if negotiations fail.
  • Trade adviser Peter Navarro cautioned the EU that responding with retaliatory measures would be a serious error and emphasized that the United States remains firm against any unjust treatment of its producers.
  • The EU plans to file a WTO dispute against U.S. tariffs, aiming for a negotiated resolution but preparing to enact countermeasures if talks collapse, which could influence global trade tensions.
