President Donald Trump said Friday that he is not looking to reach a tariff deal with the European Union, after he announced 50 percent duties on goods imported from the 27-nation bloc.
When speaking to reporters in the White House, Trump said, “I’m not looking for a deal” with the EU and that the 50 percent tariff is scheduled to go into effect on June 1, responding to a question on whether he anticipated an agreement to come with the EU before June 1.
