Trump menace l'UE de tarifs plus élevés sur les voitures

Donald Trump a intensifié la pression sur l'Union européenne en menaçant d'augmenter les droits de douane sur les voitures si l'accord commercial de 2025 n'est pas ratifié d'ici au 4 juillet.

L'accord avait été conclu fin juillet 2025 sur le golf de Turnberry en Écosse. Il prévoit notamment la suppression des droits de douane sur certains produits.

Une réunion mercredi soir entre représentants des États membres et du Parlement européen n'a pas permis d'harmoniser les positions européennes. Ursula von der Leyen a déclaré que l'Europe se tient « prête à tous les scénarios ».

Emmanuel Macron a plaidé pour des mesures de rétorsion tandis que Friedrich Merz a appelé à la prudence. Le président américain a averti que les tarifs pourraient atteindre « des niveaux beaucoup plus élevés ».

France urges a united European Union response and Germany plans talks with allies after US President Donald Trump raised his global tariff to 15% on Saturday, defying a Supreme Court ruling that struck down his initial trade measures.

In a landmark 6-3 ruling, the US Supreme Court declared unlawful the special tariffs President Donald Trump imposed on dozens of trading partners under a 1977 emergency law, ruling that it does not authorize the president to bypass Congress. The decision, published earlier this year, has collected about $130 billion but left refunds unclear, prompting lawsuits from importers like FedEx. Trump responded by announcing a new general 10% tariff on all goods.
