French Wine Exporters Say Trump’s Latest Tariff Threat Is Bad News

Reuters reports that French wine and spirits exporters have criticised Donald Trump’s renewed threat of 100% tariffs on French wine and Champagne unless France scraps its 3% digital tax on US tech companies. Exporters’ group FEVS said the threat was damaging for an export-reliant sector caught in a dispute outside its control, and called for responsible, balanced trade relations between France and the US.
