WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 President Donald Trump on Friday threatened a 100% tax on imports from any country that imposes a tax on digital services from United States companies.<\/p>\n

In a post on social media, Trump took aim at European countries that he said are discussing \u201cimminent\u201d implementation of taxes on American companies.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease let this statement serve to represent that any Country that imposes such a Tax will immediately be met with a 100% TARIFF on any and all Goods sent to the United States of America,\u201d Trump wrote.<\/p>\n

He added that the new tax would supersede any previously negotiated trade deals. Trump said the penalty would apply to any country that moves forward with such a tax, but he singled out European nations in his post.<\/p>\n

Trump has repeatedly pushed against foreign efforts to tax or regulate American tech giants. Last year he threatened new tariffs on any country that moved to do so. A post from last August said that digital taxes and regulation \u201care all designed to harm, or discriminate against, American Technology.\u201d<\/p>\n

The threat comes ahead of Trump\u2019s July 4 deadline for the European Union and United States to approve a tariff deal that caps tariffs on most EU exports at 15%.<\/p>\n

The European Union in May finalized a trade deal with the United States that caps most tariffs on EU exports at 15%. The deal followed months of debate within the EU after European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen tentatively struck the deal while visiting Trump\u2019s golf course in Scotland.<\/p>\n

Digital taxes were not part of the agreement and have remained a sticking point between the U.S. and the European bloc.<\/p>\n
