The EU has received the latest American tariff proposal, but the situation is far from settled. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen made it clear that all options are on the table as Europe fights to defend its interests against the threat of American tariffs. US President Donald Trump has threatened to impose 50% tariffs on all EU goods starting July 9 if no deal is reached. Currently, most EU goods face 10% tariffs, with cars and auto parts at 25%, and steel and aluminum at 50%. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and French President Emmanuel Macron demand a swift and fair deal, but not at the cost of Europe’s humiliation. Trump’s tactic is clear: accept reciprocal 10% tariffs or face an economic earthquake. European leaders are under pressure to decide whether to yield or retaliate. This trade drama is not just about tariffs but about sovereignty and power on the global stage. Will Europe stand firm, or will Trump’s threat topple the European economy? Follow this trade war that could change the rules of the game worldwide. And you, what do you think — is Europe ready to fight or will it bow to American demands?
