It is being reported that the EU would look to propose tariffs on Boeing aircraft as potential retaliation in case trade talks with the US go south. The tariffs will be part of a list of about €100bn of annual US imports to be targeted.

However, that will only be part of the consideration should there be insufficient progress in reducing US tariffs. And the measures above will still have to go through approval from EU member states.

The list will be circulated either today or tomorrow but is still subject to change in the future.
