The European Union fined Google by almost three billion euros. This is one of the largest fines of the company in Europe
Donald Trump, in response to the decision of the European Commission, threatened to start an investigation under Article 301 of the 1974 Trade Law. This law gives the US President the right to unilaterally respond to the actions of other countries that are considered “unfair” in relation to American business. “Today, Europe“ hit ”on another great American company, Google, fining it by $ 3.5 billion, actually taking the money that would otherwise go to American investments and jobs,” Trump wrote.
