美国加着关税，还到处要鸡蛋？多国回复：不给！

The European Commission proposed counter-tariffs of 25 percent on a range of US goods on Monday in response to President Donald Trump's tariffs on steel and aluminum, a document seen by Reuters showed.

The goods are wide-ranging and include diamonds, eggs, dental floss, sausages and poultry. The counter-tariffs on almonds and soybeans will take effect on Dec 1.

The US is looking abroad to plug its egg shortage, driven by a bird flu outbreak, that has sent prices soaring in supermarkets.

Disputes about tariffs aside, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) sent a request to European egg associations at the end of February, entreating them to send eggs to the US.

Germany, Denmark, Italy, Poland and Sweden are among the nations the US Department of Agriculture approached to address the shortage. Most demurred, pointing to their own growing bird flu issues and the different food safety standards for eggs in Europe.
