An old front. The EU charges custom fees, a euphemism for tariffs, on most American goods, and has done so forever. China recently filed complaints with the WTO over EU custom fees of 12% on major whiteware appliances (refrigerators, ovens, so forth). The EU has habitually used tariffs as a protectionist tools to preserve its industries.
