Donald Trump announced plans to impose 30 percent tariffs on the European Union, citing a nonreciprocal relationship. He threatened further increases if European nations retaliated. Similar threats were made against Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. Traditionally, such announcements would trigger market downturns and strong public responses from global leaders.
