The United States will implement a 12.5% tariff on goods imported from Norway, and a 10% tariff on goods from the European Union, effective Friday. This action follows a dispute over aircraft subsidies, resulting in retaliatory tariffs. Norwegian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Espen Barth Eide, expressed strong disagreement with the decision. The tariffs are expected to impact a range of Norwegian exports to the US market. This move escalates trade tensions between the US and key trading partners. Further negotiations are anticipated to resolve the underlying disagreement regarding aircraft subsidies. The economic consequences for Norwegian businesses reliant on US trade are currently being assessed.
