Washington DC, Jan. 20 -- US President Donald Trump on Monday (local time) floated the proposal of imposing 200% tariff on French wine and champagne after French President Emmanuel Macron's reported refusal to sit on the so-called Board of Peace, an initiative created by Trump to mediate global conflict, EuroNews reported.

"Nobody wants him because he's going to be out of office very soon," Trump said after hearing from a reporter that Macron would not join the board.

"I'll put a 200% tariff on his wines and champagnes and he'll join, but he doesn't have to join," Trump said.

Macron's five-year presidential term is due to end in May 2027, and he cannot run again for a third term in accordance with French law, as per EuroNews.
