The European Union could face higher tariffs if it does not reduce its growing trade deficit with the United States by increasing purchases of American oil and gas, President-elect Donald Trump said Friday, December 20, 2024.

“I have told the European Union that it must close its huge deficit with the United States by buying our oil and gas on a large scale,” he wrote on his social network Truth Social. “Otherwise, tariffs apply!!!!”, Donald Trump added.

More threats

Donald Trump, who will be inaugurated on January 20, 2025, has already threatened to impose tariffs on three of the United States' main trading partners: Canada, Mexico and China.

The European refining industry is owned by the oil majors and trading companies, and governments have no say in supply.

Prices and efficiency

Groups tend to buy based on price and efficiency. U.S. oil and natural gas exports are channeled to Europe when market conditions make such purchases more attractive relative to competing producers.
