President Emmanuel Macron says France will not bow to pressure from US President Donald Trump and scrap its digital tax on US tech giants, hours before the two met at a summit.
Before setting off for the G7 leaders summit, which Macron is hosting on the shores of Lake Geneva, Trump warned that the US would "have no choice" but to apply 100 per cent tariffs on French wine unless officials in Paris eliminated their digital tax.
Trump told the New York Post he had delivered the warning directly to Macron, demanding he remove the 3 per cent tax on US tech giants or face duties in the US market.
