Involved up to 15 billion euros, Apple Google was fined in Europe at the same time

On September 11th, the European Court of Justice ruled on the 10th that Apple must pay 13 billion euros in back taxes to Ireland. At the same time, it upheld the 2.40 billion-euro fine against Google in the United States for abusing its monopoly power to suppress competitors. The statement of the European Court of Justice confirmed that it upheld the 2016 ruling of the European Union Commission that Apple needs to pay 13 billion euros in back tax benefits to Ireland. The European Court of Justice also rejected Google's appeal on the same day, upholding the European Commission's 2017 ruling that it abused its dominant position and favored its own shopping service "Google Shopping" and imposed a 2.40 billion-euro fine.
