re: What tariffs did France or the EU have on US imports before Trump?

Well Canada had big tariff on dairy from the US. It was in range of 270%. To get around this, US dairy farmers shipped in ultra-filtered dairy products which were not subject to the tariff. Canada closed that loophole late last year or early this year. Dairy exports from US plummeted.
The EU charges a 10% tariff for US auto imports. The US tariff is around 2.5%. Big discrepancy.
The EU also hits US dairy with 30% tariff on imports. I don’t think US has an import tariff on EU dairy imports.
There are some big discrepancies. Trump is 100% correct.

It's not that what you're saying is unbelievable but can you provide links?
Also, what's with the fixation on dairy? Is it a big chunk if internatinal trade? Seems it wouldn't be very suitable to ship and store it all over the world.

quote:How much demand for dairy imports is there anyways? Besides, that 30% tarrif is passed along to the consumer who is buying the dairy products. Good for US consumers; bad for EU's.

Besides it wouldn't surprise me if the EU put imports on things like this due to Global Warming since Cows put a lot of methane in the atmosphere.
