The statement of US President Donald Trump has, in fact, a $ 30 percent deposit of a bilateral trade on all European imports, said EU Trade Commissioner Marosh Shevchovich.
"We regretted and frustrated with the US President's letter sent to the European Union, especially given the advanced stage of our current talks.
As you know, the European Union has approached these talks with good will, with full intensity. Let's be honest, the idea of a 30% tariff rate is a factual barrier for mutual trade.
"We continue to be convinced that our transatlantic relations deserve a negotiation solution," he said before the sitting of the EU External Trade Council in Brussels.
