Trump Announces U.S. Investigation into EU Trade Practices after Google FinePreviousNext

U.S. President Donald Trump announced a formal investigation into the European Union's trade practices following the EU's €890 million fine on Google for antitrust violations. Trump criticized the EU's actions as illegal and unfair to American tech companies, including Google, Apple, Meta, and Amazon. He warned that the EU would face significant consequences, including potential tariffs, and stated the penalties would be reversed. This move reflects ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and the EU over regulatory and tariff issues.
