You tell me. It certainly appears that the EU spares no resources at seeking and investigating US corporations and certainly they have no qualm in sticking them with record fines.

Break the law, get fined.

Why would you have qualms?

Yes. They've been rather soft on VW, who got a pat on the back, just like US bankers did after the subprime mortgage crisis. I'm glad the US took a had stance against VW.

You're mixing things, VW case is not an anti trust case.

EU Competition commission has fined a lot more European companies than American companies.

Which ones and for what amounts? Microsoft, Google, Qualcomm were fined more than $1b so far. All of them are US comapanies. Scania was fined €880m for price fixing.

And Mercedes another billion, and Phillips more than $400 million

And there is the whole lot of small fine to other companies.

The OP was the one claiming, he has to back with numbers.

[0} Is only fines for cartels, look at the companies
