Opposition in France calls for leaving the EU to secure a fairer trade agreement

French opposition party suggests Brexit to avoid unfair trade agreements imposed by the United States on the EU!

Leader of the French Patriotic Party, Filippo, called for France to leave the EU to reach more favorable agreements for businesses, "The US President literally 'cut' the EU, imposing a trade agreement even worse than that of the UK."

"The US has just imposed a dramatic trade agreement on our von der Leyen, far worse than the one the UK independently negotiated with the US in June, thanks to Brexit!"

Unlike the UK, the US is different from the EU; the UK's tariff rate is only 10% and is not applied to all goods, while the EU had to accept a 15% tariff on all goods. At the same time, the EU cannot impose retaliatory tariffs on US goods and has committed to purchasing $750 billion in energy from the US and investing $600 billion in the US economy.

"In short, since the EU is negotiating our trade, we are just spoiled. France must leave the EU to reach more favorable agreements for its companies!"
