Petty tit for tat terrif policy isn’t the point. The US truck market is deeply distorted by that terrif in a way that makes it difficult to get smaller utility vehicles. Especially considering that the terrif is on all trucks, even ones made in countries outside the European market that do buy American chicken, like Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.

Besides most American chicken can’t be sold in the EU anyway due chlorine washing being illegal there.
