Factbox-What items are in the EU's new response measures to Trump tariffs?

By Julia Payne

The European Commission opened a public consultation on Thursday on products which could be hit by its new counter-measures to U.S. tariffs should negotiations with Washington fail.

The Commission has compiled a list of imported products worth 95 billion euros ($107.24 billion) and a list of EU exports to the U.S. worth 4.4 billion euros ($4.97 billion), including scrap metal, which could be subject to export duties. The Commission did not include possible tariff levels.
