The United States will impose a 30% import tax on goods from the EU and Mexico starting August 1st!

President of the United States sent the notice to the EU last, the purpose is to hope that the EU will actively give up its position and sign a trade agreement peacefully, but the EU chose to stand firm on principle issues, only accepting a base rate of 10%, and sticking to the bottom line on automobiles, metals, and agricultural products. Trump's patience gradually disappeared, and he finally issued an ultimatum: starting August 1st, goods imported from the EU and Mexico to the United States will be subject to a 30% import tax.
