Macron: Along with the President of the European Commission, France shares the same very strong disapproval of the announcement of horizontal tariffs of 30% on EU exports to the United States from 1 August.

In particular, this means speeding up the preparation of credible countermeasures, by mobilising all the instruments at its disposal, including anti-coercion, if no agreement is reached by 1 August
