A member of the French Parliament, Virginie Duby-Muller, appealed to the country's Minister of Agriculture, Annie Genevar, with a warning about the consequences of the plan of the administration of US President Donald Trump to impose 200 percent duties on European wines and spirits.

She stressed that with Trump's return to power and his statements about trade wars with a number of economic partners, including the European Union (EU), the French wine and spirits industry is under threat of increased duties, which puts it in clear danger, since the American market is the largest in the world.

"The immediate cessation of exports will lead to losses of almost €4 billion for producers of wines and spirits," the deputy quotes. Lenta.Ru .

The parliamentarian asked the minister what measures the government is taking to support the industry in light of the expected risks.

Earlier, on April 2, Trump announced the tariffs. He also showed a chart with a list of countries and topics related to the new duties of the United States against them.

Cambodia (49%), Vietnam (46%), Thailand (36%), China (34%), Taiwan (32%) and South Africa (30%) now have some of the highest tariffs. Duties of 20% will be imposed on goods from the European Union (EU), 34% on goods from China.

The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said that the European Union is ready to negotiate with the United States on duties. In her opinion, it is not too late to come to an agreement, reports 360.ru .

At the same time, she noted that the EU has already agreed on the first package of retaliatory measures for duties on steel and aluminum, IA Regnum reports.
