daring as at the time of filing in this
7:01
news report on Saturday night leaders in
7:04
the European countries have kept mom
7:06
ever since on Friday the United states
7:10
us President Donald Trump announced
7:12
plans to impose 50% tariff on goods not
7:16
made in the North America country that
7:18
comes from European countries with a
7:20
specific threat to impose 25% tariff on
7:23
Apple if the iPhone manufacturer does
7:25
not move production to the United States
7:28
this President Donald Trump based his
7:30
actions on what he claimed to be cases
7:33
of unfair and unjustified lawsuits filed
7:35
by the European countries against
7:37
American companies among other reasons
7:40
but it could be recalled that earlier in
7:42
the month of April 2025 when President
7:46
Trump issued the first tariff threat of
7:49
25% on European goods the immediate past
7:53
Germany Chancellor Olaf Schultz had said
7:55
that even if European countries did
7:57
nothing in response to Donald Trump
8:00
imposed tariffs the increased tariffs
8:02
will cause a big problems in the US
8:04
economy adding that Trump intending
8:07
tariff increment on EU goods is an
8:10
economic error and the European
8:12
Commission President Ursula von Deer
8:14
Lean had also in early April 2025 said
8:17
that the EU countries is the largest
8:20
single market in the world and the EU
8:22
have what it takes to retaliate or
8:24
strike back president Donald Trump on
8:27
Friday threatened tech giant Apple with
8:29
a 25% tariff if the iPhone manufacturer
8:32
doesn't move production to the United
8:35
States he later said trade talks with
8:38
the European Union were progressing so
8:40
poorly that a 50% tariff should be
8:42
imposed next week June 1st
8:45
2025 president Trump proposed that Apple
8:48
build its iPhones in the US or face a
8:51
25% tariff tech analysts say that would
8:57
$3,500 per phone according to CNN senior
9:00
data analyst Harry Anton who analyzed
9:03
the possible impacts the US president
9:05
action may cause the North American
9:08
residents President Donald Trump has
9:10
said he is recommending imposing 50%
9:14
tariffs on goods from the European Union
9:16
being imported to the United States our
9:19
discussions with them are going nowhere
9:21
he said in a post on social media on
9:24
Friday the announcement marks an
9:26
escalation of Trump's trade war with the
9:28
EU which has already been hit with a
9:31
blanket 20% tariff on all US exports
9:34
according to US media their powerful
9:37
trade barriers VAT taxes ridiculous
9:40
corporate penalties non-monetary trade
9:43
barriers monetary manipulations unfair
9:46
and unjustified lawsuits against
9:48
Americans companies and more have led to
9:51
a trade deficit with the US of more than
9:54
$250 million a year a number which is
9:57
totally unacceptable he wrote in a truth
10:00
social post on Friday morning our
10:03
discussions with them are going nowhere
10:05
Trump wrote therefore I am recommending
10:08
a straight 50% tariff on the European
10:10
Union starting on June 1st
10:13
2025 the tariff Trump is considering
10:16
slapping on the EU is more than double
10:18
the size of the 20% initial reciprocal
10:22
tariff that was briefly in place in
10:24
April before he swiftly paused those
10:26
tariffs to allow for further
