President Trump said on the 25th local time that the European Union has requested to extend the deadline for tariff negotiations until July 9th, and he has agreed to this request. Trump said that the talks with the EU on tariff issues were "very pleasant." Trump posted on social media on the 23rd that he proposed to impose a 50% tariff on goods from the EU starting from June 1st. He said that the main purpose of the EU's establishment is to "take advantage of the United States in trade," and negotiations between the US and EU have made "no progress." Therefore, he proposed to impose a 50% tariff on goods from the EU starting from June 1, 2025. Goods manufactured or produced in the United States would not be subject to tariffs.
