The EU slapped tariffs on U.S. textiles, home appliances, agricultural goods, motorcycles, bourbon, peanut butter, and jeans, along with steel and aluminum.
The European Union said it would impose counter-tariffs on 26 billion euros ($28.33 billion) worth of U.S. goods starting in April in response to the duties.
The European Commission announced plans to retaliate against U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs on steel and aluminum. European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen said, "Tariffs are taxes."
While Trump's tariffs could help steel and aluminum plants in the United States, they could raise prices for the manufacturers that use the metals as raw materials.
