Trump administration says the proposed tariffs are in response to the bloc’s subsidies for aircraft maker AirbusThe Trump administration moved on Monday toward imposing tariffs on about $11 billion in imports from the European Union, saying the move was justified by the bloc’s subsidies for aircraft manufacturer Airbus.
The U.S. has been in litigation at the World Trade Organization over the case of Airbus subsidies since 2004, and said it was releasing a list of items proposed for tariffs in anticipation of a ruling soon from the WTO on the case.

Despite the downbeat assessment, Barnier did say that 'we can still hope to avoid it' through intensive work in London ahead of an April 10 summit.
