Great Technical War: Conflict between US charges and EU trade

Founder from moment AmazonJeff Besos, head MethaMark Zuckerberg, Chairman AppleTim Cook, and the head GoogleThe main seats are occupied, sucking the beggar To capture President Donald Trump In January, it was clear that the relationship of the best American technologies with the White House would be short in January.

Many of these executives have attracted attention on Trump during the first decree on climate change and immigration problems. This time they were clearly headed by the head of SpaceX and Tesla Elon Musk spent nearly $ 300 million to help the president’s campaign Since then, he has accepted the important role of the performance in the new regime.

However, the expression of Trump is “Release Day” And subsequent political roller coaster -this He is currently enjoying the 90 -day interval for negotiations– He has introduced the best technology to the heart of the Business War.

The EU is ready PressThere is a business surplus with the EU, if negotiations fail in the current business war, As he declared Ursula van der Lainin, president of the European Commission last week.

“For them (big technology companies), Europe is the most attractive and rich market,” Van Der Lain announced that This week the German media ‘Tie Jeet’, and more and more said: “It has 450 million people, and they have high quality and free time compared to the rest of the world. Here, here In Europe, there is a large business size And the biggest benefits of digital services. No company wants to lose access to this market. “

Attack technology This is one of the options inspected by US President Donald Trump, the Commission 90 -day suspension in business conflict. We are looking at variables that affect the decision that adds to technical groups such as the target, Google and Facebook.

1. The results of the best technology

History Digital Services Act (DSA) and the Digital markets law .

Peter Navaro, one of Trump’s main consultants, He openly accused the “legal” against the best American technology..In ResponseThe European Union said that as part of any business negotiations with the United States, it “will make any concessions on its digital and technical standards.”

The European Commission has begun Many investigations within the structure of the DSA Since it came into effect a few years ago, but none of them ended up, even though it was determined in some cases until March 25 this year.

In a short trial TMA violation in relation to Apple and MetaAwaiting a political decision at the highest level of the Commission.

“We are currently working on Accepting the definitive short -term results“The Commission spokesman, Thomas Recinier said on Tuesday, pointing out that the technical work has come to an end.” “

The Commission stressed that these TMA inquiries are strictly carried out in accordance with the rules It does not discriminate against companies based on their own country. But most of the people under their purpose means Americans, and the results are now seen by the Lens of Business Business War.

Instead, DSA investigations have not yet advanced: The investigation on X alone allows dark forms and should not stop spreading illegal content- This has significantly advanced. An important factor in complicating X is, Elon Mask, CEO of the site, is also Trump’s government consultant.

Can be musk Is considered to be responsible personally According to the Commission at the end of last year, the X -Business Model is a number of millionaires fined due to the violation of the DSA. This means that the Commission is also responsible for the income of companies such as space exploration technologies and Nurialing. The DSA fine is 6% of the company’s annual global income.

However, it is to take note of it US officials may agree with the European Commission for the competition. Federal Commerce Commission – American hopeless Commission. – WhatsApp and the goal of abuse its supremacy by buying Instagram. On April 14, a hearing was opened in front of US judges.

2. Starling

He Elon Musk Starling can also be caught in business war. Many EU countries are increasingly distrustful of the musk satellite infrastructure and seek to reduce their strategic dependence. Starling is immersed in the orbit of the Business War for retaliation or other reasons.

In the present, Kasturi Starling satellites They played an important role in maintaining internet connection in Ukraine after the Russian invasion. Some EU member states, such as Polish, have helped to finance the Starling Terminals to support the Ukrainian opposition to the ground.

However, in spite of its importance in the conflict and emergency response areas, Starling is often not from European homes. This system is usually more expensive and slower than the traditional broadband operators of the continent, which is a small practical option for most consumers.

Brendon Car, Commissioner of Federal Communications Commission in the United States, recently declared financial hours that Europe is at risk of getting caught up between the technical powers of Europe. “If Europe has its own satellite galaxy. But in more common words, I think Europe is slightly stuck between the US and China. Time to choose, “he said.

The European Union tries the third way: develop its own alternatives. IRIS2 Project This is going on, and it is time for these projects, but it is ready to win Yudelzat Starling.

3. The member states ask for digital tax

Some organ states like France y GermanyThey consider Include digital services in the EU’s response to US charges. French Economic Minister Eric Lombard proposed to regulate the use of data by large technology companies. The data for artificial intelligence is considered “black gold”And the size of the European market makes great American technologies attractive.

Van Ter Lain pointed out that the EU is ready to introduce Tax for digital advertising income. The digital tax was discussed in OECD until the Trump agreement was made last January.

The European Union may attack major technologies that show the “nuclear option”: its tool against insistence. It This will allow the European Union to withdraw the licenses and intellectual property rights to foreign companies.

However, taxation of US technology services will raise similar issues as Trump’s original payment strike: Could cause more damage to Europe than its planned objectives Ask uncomfortable questions about technical sovereignty and setback.

Govid -19 Infection in Ukraine led to promote the Russian occupation Authority “Technical Sovereign” agenda In an attempt to be less dependent on foreign territories.

But it is very low to prove many years later. For example, most cloud services are in the hands of a few American operators. And regarding the chips Automobile industry is more used in the industry, space, security and other sectors-the EU says that the European Union has only about 10% of the market and often depends on the rest of the world. LStatistics Facilitated by the Commission.

A wide group of EU member states, SO -CALLED D9+ Countries – Belgium, Czech, Denmark, Slovenia, Spain, Estonia, Finland, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal and Sweden – They called Enhance Digital competition And EU sovereignty At the meeting held last month.

Dutch Economic Affairs Minister Drek Belgartz announced on Tuesday Response Parliamentary questions about whether the country wants to depend on American technology, which focuses on the development of a sovereign government cloud, as well as controlling the “undesirable dependence” of a few technology companies.

But, similar to other parts of Europe, point to Digital sovereignty is an aspirationAnd point out the best American technology, in the meantime it will indicate cutting the floor at the feet.
