‘They don’t take anything’ – Trump explains why US imposed heavy tariffs on Europe

Published on April 07, 2025 at 10:41 AM

President Donald Trump has explained why the United States imposed heavy tariffs on European countries.

Trump spoke to reporters on Sunday aboard Air Force One as he traveled back to Washington from Florida.

The Republican lamented that Europe has treated the United States badly.

“We take their cars, Mercedes, Volkswagen, BMW… we take millions of cars, they take no cars,” Trump said aboard Air Force One.

“They don't take our farm product, they don't take anything.

“Europe's treated us very badly. We put a big tariff on Europe.”

Trump recently announced that Italy, which has a large trade relationship with the US, will be subject to a general tariff of 20%, along with other European Union countries.

Trump's trade war across the world has continued to attract condemnation from economic experts who warned of possible consequences.
