The White House objects 700 mn EU fine against Apple , Meta.

The EU fined Apple $570 million , saying the company didn’t follow the rules set by a new law called the DMA (Digital Markets Act) This law is meant to make big tech companies treat competitors and customers more fairly.

However, the White House calls the fines a form of “economic extortion,” basically accusing the EU of unfairly squeezing money out of American companies.

Trump had already said back in 2024 that he wouldn't let Europe take advantage of US companies.
