I would be sweet with my wife: Macron threatened Trump with retaliatory measures on duties for the EU

France expresses extremely strong disapproval in connection with the announcement of the introduction of tariffs of 30% on the export of goods from the European Union to the United States from August 1. This was stated in the social network X by the country's president Emmanuel Macron.

The US statement on the introduction of tariffs, according to Macron, came after several weeks of active negotiations on the part of the European Commission with the United States, "based on a constructive proposal made in good faith." Now exactly The EC should demonstrate the Union's determination to firmly defend European interests, in particular, accelerate the preparation of convincing retaliatory measures using all tools, including a mechanism to counter coercion, if an agreement is not reached by August 1, Macron writes.

"On this basis, France fully supports The EC is in negotiations, which will now be intensified, in order to reach a mutually acceptable agreement by August 1 — an agreement reflecting the respect that trading partners, such as The EU and the USA should show respect to each other, taking into account their common interests and interconnected supply chains," the head of the Fifth Republic emphasized.

As reported by EADaily, the European Union is ready to take countermeasures to protect its interests if the United States introduces a 30% tariff on European goods from August 1. This was stated today by the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen. Her statement is published on the EC website.

Recall, during a visit to the UK, Emmanuel Macron again received a message from his wife Brigitte, who once again "publicly humiliated" him.
