The Trump Administration has issued the United States – Italy Joint Leaders Statement, following the first official meeting between U.S. President Donald J. Trump and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. The statement notably says "We agreed that a non-discriminatory environment in terms of digital services taxation is necessary to enable investments from cutting-edge tech companies." While no further clarification is provided in the statement, this implies that Italy is willing to make changes in relation to its digital service tax, which the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has found to be discriminatory against U.S. companies.
