According to Reuters, the European Union plans to unite its member states to join China and Canada in retaliating against Trump’s tariffs, targeting up to $28 billion worth of U.S. goods, ranging from dental floss to diamonds. Trump has warned that any retaliation will lead to higher tariffs, increasing the risk of a global trade war. The European Commission will hold a meeting of member states on the 7th to discuss the impact of Trump's tariffs and strategies for response, seeking a unified position to begin negotiations with the United States. If negotiations fail, the EU will retaliate based on a prepared list of countermeasures that includes various everyday goods and luxury items. This is seen as the most challenging negotiation faced by the EU since Brexit.

Reports indicate that the European Union may seek to unite member states to join China and Canada in countering Trump's tariff policies. The initial targets of retaliation would include U.S. goods worth up to $28 billion, covering a range from dental floss to diamonds. As Trump has threatened that any retaliatory action will trigger higher tariffs, this has raised concerns about the escalation of a global trade war.

As speculations arise about whether the EU will join the retaliatory actions of China and Canada, reports suggest that the European Commission will hold its first member state assembly on the 7th, following Trump's announcement of reciprocal tariffs, to allow country representatives to exchange views on the impact of Trump's tariffs and response measures.

An EU official responsible for foreign affairs stated that the main purpose of this assembly is to seek a unified position in order to negotiate tariff removals with the United States. If negotiations fail, the EU will respond to the U.S. based on a prepared list of retaliatory actions. Therefore, the Commission plans to propose a series of tariffs on U.S. goods to respond to Trump's steel and aluminum taxes on Europe.

It is reported that this list of retaliatory measures includes many everyday consumer goods and food items, such as meat, grains, wine, clothing, chewing gum, dental floss, vacuum cleaners, and toilet paper, even including luxury items like diamonds. An EU diplomat pointed out that this is one of the most challenging bilateral negotiations the EU faces following the Brexit.
