France tells Trump: Don’t mix digital taxes and wine tariffs
Is that likely to be effective?
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said on Saturday La Belle France would proceed with its tax on the revenues of big technology firms and urged the United States not to bring trade tariffs into the debate on how to fairly raise levies on digital services.

Le Maire was responding to US President Donald Trump
...The man who was so stupid he beat fourteen professional politicians, a former tech CEO, and a brain surgeon for the Republican nomination in 2016, then beat The Smartest Woman in the World in the general election...
’s threat to tax French wines in retaliation for La Belle France’s digital services tax, which Trump says unjustly targets US companies.

"It’s in our interest to have a fair digital tax," Le Maire told news hounds. "Please do not mix the two issues. The key question now is how we can we get consensus on fair taxation of digital activities."
What activity justifies theft digital taxes?
