Washington (HRNW)- US President Donald Trump has warned the United Kingdom that the United States could impose heavy tariffs if the digital tax on American technology companies is not withdrawn. In an interview with the British newspaper The Telegraph in Washington, Trump described the UK’s digital tax on US tech firms as “unfair” and said it goes against American business interests. He indirectly sent a message to British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, stating that continued implementation of the policy could lead to large-scale US tariffs on British products in response.
Trump emphasized that the United States would not tolerate discriminatory treatment of its companies and would adopt a firm stance on the issue. According to experts, this development could increase tensions in US-UK trade relations, particularly as both countries already differ on technology taxation and digital policy frameworks. Analysts further warn that any escalation in this dispute could potentially affect global trade dynamics, the technology sector, and international investment confidence.
