This is just the beginning. The new administration acts as if other sovereign nations cannot retaliate.

They can and they will.

Just maybe the US is finally retaliating for the past treatment of our country. European economies are struggling now I really doubt they want to slow down tourism. Our country is still the economic engine for the rest. Socialist economies need other peoples money badly. Sorry, tired of people beating up and complaining about the USA. We have a great country and people. We share our resources with people through out this world. Give Trump a chance. Not everyone liked Obama but he was our president and deserved his chance also. Go USA

This threat started years ago. This has zero to do with Trump. Here is a story from June of 2006 about the issue.

Whoa!! Stop right there!! No one, especially me, was blaming President Trump, or any other president for that mater, for this.

It was a simple question asking for opinions,on this issue affecting travel to the French Side -- not a political diatribe.

A great way to kill tourism on the French Islands, including St. Martin for cruising sailors. We vote with our keels <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />

"Just maybe the US is finally retaliating for the past treatment of our country."

The greatest misconception is that the whole world hates America and its people. This is totally wrong. Only a handful of Islamic extremists hate the WHOLE western world, including America.

This is getting political, which never goes well. So will end it here.
