EU formally imposes counter-tariffs on US imports by 31 December 2026 in response to the new US tariffs (10–12.5%, in force since 25 July 2026) – confirmed by the EU Official Journal or Reuters/AFP

On 25 July 2026, new US tariffs of 10–12.5% entered into force on goods from 60 countries including EU exports to the US (12.5%). The EU has the legal tool of Enforcement Regulation (EU) 654/2014 for proportionate countermeasures. In 2018–2019, the EU responded to steel/aluminium tariffs with targeted counter-tariffs (bourbon, Harley-Davidson, orange juice). In May 2025, the EU filed a WTO complaint against earlier US tariffs. Bruegel (July 2026) outlines the EU strategy following the US Supreme Court Tariff Ruling. Headwinds: EU prefers negotiations; an autumn Trump-Xi summit could indirectly create pressure for an EU-US deal. No direct Polymarket market; own estimate ~62%.
