EU has been a 'boon' for United States, it fires back at Trump

The European Union has been a "boon" for the United States, but it fired back Wednesday at U.S. President Donald Trump after he said the bloc was formed "to screw the United States."

"The European Union is the world's largest free market. And it has been a boon for the United States," said a European Commission source, adding the EU would respond "firmly and immediately" to new tariffs -- a reference to Trump's latest threats.
