German Socialist MEP Bernd Lange, chair of the European Parliament's trade committee, told Euronews that the EU should brace for further action from the US following the €890 million fine imposed on Google by the European Commission on Thursday.

Tensions escalated across the Atlantic after US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said the fine was "unreasonable" and created "uncertainty" for US-EU trade.

Brussels imposed the fine on the tech giant under the Digital Markets Act (DMA), which is designed to curb Big Tech's dominance in the EU's digital markets and has been a repeated target of US criticism since Donald Trump's return to the White House.
