Trump und Transatlantic Tech: Eine tickende Zeitbombe

Submission Statement: There are potential conflicts between the US and EU over tech policy under the Trump administration. The EU’s Digital Markets Act and Digital Services Act have imposed strict antitrust rules on US tech companies, which Trump believes discriminates against American businesses. With Trump’s history of threatening legal action against Big Tech companies and imposing tariffs on European goods, a potential conflict over tech policy could add to existing transatlantic divergences over trade, climate change, and defense spending, potentially sparking a “transatlantic conflagration.”
