Several countries in Europe have imposed taxes on the revenue of digital service providers, which mainly affects US giants such as Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon.

This causes problems in a person's behaviour and speaking ability. He mentioned the Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska, where Trump was walking unsteadily.
