The United States imposed punitive tariffs on some French and German products in response to a long-running dispute over aircraft manufacturing with the European Union.
According to Arabia Net, products subject to customs duties will include aircraft manufacturing parts, and some products imported from France and Germany, according to a statement issued by the commercial representative American.
and these measures came in response to the customs duties imposed by the European Union on US products worth 4 billion dollars last November following the issuance of a ruling by the World Trade Organization, according to German News Agency.
The United States accused the European Union of unfairly increasing the volume of retaliation by using data released long ago in which the volume of trade was significantly reduced due to the emerging Coronavirus pandemic.

The US representative also accused the European Union of excluding Britain from the trade volume calculations in his favor.
The effect of this was an unfair increase in retaliation during the 52 days in which the UK remained in the European Union for customs duties purposes. He added that the European Union should take some measures to compensate for this injustice.
The statement added that details of the new fees will be presented in the next Federal Register Notice.
