Additional consideration for 30 items such as beer subject to sanctions tariffs on the US EU June 25, 7:13

The US government has announced that it will add 3,000 billion yen worth of imported goods, such as beer and chocolate, to the EU, which is continuing to fight over the handling of subsidies to aircraft manufacturers, as a target of sanctions tariffs. I chose

The United States and the EU continue to dispute each other's subsidies to the aircraft manufacturers "Boeing" and "Airbus" because they are unfair in competition. We are implementing sanctions to add a 25% tariff.

The U.S. Trade Representative has announced a new policy on this measure and will raise tariffs on 30 items including beer and chocolate from Germany, France, Spain, and the United Kingdom, which has already left the EU, in four countries. Clarified that we have begun to make additional studies.

It means that the total amount of imported goods will be 3.1 billion dollars, or 330 billion yen in Japanese yen.

The Trade Representative will collect opinions from industry and other parties to determine a specific tax rate by the 26th of next month.

The US government strongly opposes that the IT companies in their own countries are unreasonably targeted, even under the “digital taxation” that is widely adopted in EU countries, and the gap between the US and EU is deepening.
