German automakers saw their shares decline on Monday morning after U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to impose a 30 percent tariff on imports from the EU and Mexico starting August 1.

Trump stated that the 30 percent tariffs would be in addition to already existing sector-specific duties, meaning that car imports will still be subject to the current 27.5 percent tariffs.

In Sweden, Volvo Cars also experienced a drop in share price during the morning session.
