US President Donald Trump announced that he will raise tariffs on cars and trucks imported from the European Union to 25 per cent, citing the bloc’s failure to comply with the trade agreement concluded with Washington.
Trump said, “Due to the European Union’s non-compliance with our trade agreement, I will raise, next week, the tariffs imposed on EU exports of cars and trucks to the United States.”
