Trump Targets EU Over Google Fine, Threatens New Tariffs and Trade Probe Into Big Tech Penalties

Trump threatened to retaliate against the EU after it fined Google €890 million under the Digital Markets Act.

He said the U.S. will launch a Section 301 trade investigation into the bloc and may reverse European penalties.

Trump also warned of substantial new tariffs on EU imports if he sees the rules as unfair to American tech firms.

The move ties Big Tech enforcement in Europe to broader U.S.-EU trade tensions.
