特朗普宣布美国将对欧盟贸易做法启动正式调查，声称欧盟对美国科技公司的罚款行为不公平13。这一宣布源于欧盟委员会最近对谷歌罚款8.9亿欧元（10亿美元）的决定123。
特朗普在Truth Social上发文指控欧盟"直接针对"美国企业，并表示将立即启动调查欧盟"掠夺"美国公司的行为2。他声称"美国不是欧洲的'储钱罐'"12，并威胁欧盟将因其行动"付出非常大的代价"2。
根据特朗普的说法，欧盟对多家美国科技巨头征收了巨额罚款，包括苹果收到150亿欧元罚款、Meta收到30亿欧元罚款、亚马逊收到25亿欧元罚款3。特朗普表示这些罚款应被"完全撤销"3。
欧盟对谷歌罚款的理由是该公司在搜索和应用商店服务中对自身购物、酒店、交通和体育结果等服务给予优先待遇，违反在线竞争法2。此外，欧盟已将亚马逊、苹果、谷歌母公司Alphabet、Meta、微软和字节跳动列为"守门人"1。
特朗普计划通过启动第301条款贸易调查对欧盟施加压力3。他表示将对欧盟征收"实质性关税"1，具体为10%-12.5%的进口税3。此前一天，特朗普已宣布对包括欧盟在内的60多个贸易伙伴征收10%的关税23。
谷歌发言人何塞·卡斯塔尼达表示欢迎特朗普的介入，并对欧盟委员会的决定表示关切2。
President Trump has declared that the United States will formally investigate the European Union's trade practices, claiming the bloc has unfairly targeted American technology companies through substantial fines. 123 Trump stated the US will launch a Section 301 trade investigation 3 and threatened the EU with "substantial" tariffs in response. 23
The announcement follows the EU's recent €890 million ($1 billion) fine against Google for violations of online competition law. 123 According to Trump, the fines should be completely rescinded. 3 Beyond Google, Trump cited additional penalties imposed on American tech firms, claiming Apple received a €15 billion fine, Meta received €3 billion, and Amazon received €2.5 billion. 3
Trump characterized the EU's regulatory actions as unfair targeting. 12 "The United States of America is not a 'piggybank' for Europe, nor will we allow it to be!" Trump stated. 3 He also said the EU would face "very big consequences" for its actions. 2
The EU fined Google for allegedly giving preferential treatment to its own services in search results, including shopping, hotels, transportation, and sports outcomes. 2 The EU has designated Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, and ByteDance as "gatekeepers" under its regulatory framework. 1
Trump had announced tariffs of 10% to 12.5% on over 60 trading partners, including the EU, one day prior to this announcement. 3 Google's spokesperson Jose Castaneda welcomed Trump's involvement and expressed concern about the European Commission's decision. 2
