Trump vows 100% tariffs on nations taxing US digital services

TL;DR Summary
President Trump warned that any country imposing a digital services tax on US tech firms would face a 100% tariff on all US-bound imports, signaling a potential US-EU trade confrontation as Europe contemplates such levies. Brussels defended digital taxes as non-discriminatory and warned of a swift response, raising the risk of a broader clash over tech regulation. The threat comes ahead of a July 4 deadline related to a tariff deal capping EU exports and follows past US investigations under Section 301; the EU has outlined a tech-sovereignty roadmap amid these disputes.
