Buried in http://trade.ec.europa.eu/doclib/docs/2018/may/tradoc_156909.pdf are 50% tariffs on things like "microwave amplifiers", "aerial amplifiers" and "Articles specifically designed for connection to telegraphic or telephonic apparatus or instruments or to telegraphic or telephonic networks".

Not that is will affect most of us but how did the EU decide that " Plasma cleaner machines that remove organic contaminants from electron microscopy specimens and specimen holders" should be targeted?
