Europe has treated the US "very badly", Donald Trump has said several times since beginning his second term in the White House.
He said it again overnight, this time taking aim at the EU's trade surplus with the US.
"We take their cars, Mercedes, Volkswagen, BMW... we take millions of cars, they take no cars," he said aboard Air Force One.
"They don't take our farm product, they don't take anything. Europe's treated us very badly. We put a big tariff on Europe."
Trump added the EU is "coming to the table", and "wants to talk", but said any agreement would have conditions.
"There's no talk unless they pay us a lot of money on a yearly basis," he added.
"Number one - for present, but also for past, because they've taken a lot of our wealth away, and we're not going to allow it to happen."
On Wednesday, the EU is set to be hit with a 20% tariff.
