France shares the same strong disapproval of tariff announcements, Macron wrote on the social X network, adding that this announcement comes after weeks of intense commitment from the European Commission to negotiations with the United States, on the basis of a strong trust-made offer.
“Finance fully supports the European Commission in the negotiations, which will now intensify, to reach a mutually acceptable agreement by August 1st, reflecting the respect trade partners like the European Union and the United States owe to each other, with their common interests and integrated chains of the “, Macron writes.
Earlier, European Commission President Ursula von der Layeen reacted sharply to US President Donald Trump's decision to set tariffs to 30%. She added that the EU is ready for a negotiated solution, but warned that the European Union is prepared for proportional countermass if the US does not withdraw from the decision.
New tariffs announced by Trump affect not only the EU, but Mexico. Earlier this week, the US president announced new tariffs to several other countries, including Japan, South Korea, Canada and Brazil, as well as a 50% fee on copper. /Periscopi/
