Donald Trump on Monday threatened 200 percent tariffs on French wine and champagne over France’s intentions to decline the US leader’s invitation to join his “Board of Peace.”

“I’ll put a 200 percent tariff on his wines and champagnes. And he’ll join. But he doesn’t have to join,” Trump said, referring to French President Emmanuel Macron.

A source close to Macron told AFP on Monday that France “does not intend to answer favorably” to the invitation. (AFP)
