International — European Commission & Apple Inc.

International — European Commission: The International — European Commission, through its spokesperson Olof Gill, has denounced Donald Trump's tariff threats as unjustified and pledged a swift and decisive response if they are implemented, highlighting the bloc's regulatory autonomy.

Apple Inc.: Apple Inc. is one of the US tech companies that faces digital services taxes in Europe, leading to Donald Trump's threats of tariffs. The company's financial performance in these markets is under scrutiny.

International — European Commission: The International — European Commission, as the EU's competition authority, successfully brought and defended the antitrust case against Alphabet Inc., resulting in the upholding of a €4.1 billion fine. This victory reinforces its role in regulating digital markets and combating anti-competitive practices by major tech firms.

Apple Inc.: Apple Inc. was mentioned by Alphabet Inc. in its defense, arguing that the EU unfairly ignored Apple's practices of prioritizing its own services on iPhones. However, the court rejected this argument.
