U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed on Friday that he plans to impose tariffs on the European Union, calling the bloc's trade practices toward the United States unfair.

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump responded affirmatively when asked if he would impose tariffs, stating, 'Absolutely.

The European Union has treated us so terribly.' The announcement comes as Trump prepares to introduce tariffs on other major trade partners, including China, Mexico, and Canada.

Trump has long criticized the EU's trade policies and has previously threatened such measures as part of his administration's broader trade agenda.
