Europeans are increasingly boycotting U.S. goods

A growing number of people in Europe and other countries are choosing to boycott American products. They are unhappy with President Trump’s policies and actions towards their nations. Bo Albertus, a school principal in Denmark, shares his feelings about this boycott. He misses his favorite American snacks and products, like Sun-Maid raisins and Heinz tomato soup. However, he believes he must take a stand because he sees Trump's policies as a threat to Europe’s economy and security. Albertus is part of a Danish group that has about 90,000 members who are also boycotting U.S. goods. He says this action makes them feel empowered. Many other Europeans, Canadians, and people from different countries are joining in, especially in nations that Trump has criticized. The boycott is popular in countries like Denmark and Canada, where Trump’s comments have created resentment. Online groups have formed in several European nations, sharing tips on alternatives to American products. Members discuss local substitutes for laptops, dog food, and other goods. Some even compare European drinks to American ones.
