The European Union<\/a> plans to hit US imports, including Boeing (BA<\/a>) planes, with retaliatory tariffs if President Trump sticks with a 10% baseline levy on EU goods, as many expect. Brussels says it’s ready to respond if trade talks fail to deliver a fair deal.<\/p>\n

EU industry chief Stephane Sejourne said the bloc will need to “rebalance”<\/a> in key sectors if the US insists on keeping tariffs. The EU is racing to reach a deal before July 9, when duties on nearly all its exports to the US could jump to 50%.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will need to retaliate and rebalance in some key sectors if the US insists on an asymmetrical deal,\u201d the EU\u2019s industry chief, Stephane Sejourne, told Bloomberg News<\/a>, including if the \u201coutcome of the negotiations is that a 10% tariff remains.\u201d<\/p>\n

Talks have gained urgency, but EU officials say Washington’s demands, which include quotas on fish and one-sided tariff rules, risk breaching World Trade Organization (WTO) standards. Many expect most US tariffs will stay in place, even with a deal.<\/p>\n

EU trade chief Maros Sefcovic<\/a> confirmed rebalancing measures are being prepared to shield European firms if no fair outcome is reached.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The European Union plans to hit US imports, including Boeing (BA) planes, with retaliatory tariffs if President Trump…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":194294,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5311],"tags":[1551,39735,26945,49,978,659],"class_list":{"0":"post-215983","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-united-states","8":"tag-president-trump","9":"tag-the-european-commission","10":"tag-the-european-union","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-us","13":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114749925218277289","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215983","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=215983"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215983\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/194294"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=215983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=215983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=215983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
