The European Union needs to stand up to President Donald Trump and push through a digital tax on tech companies, France's finance minister said Thursday.

In an on-stage discussion with CNBC's Karen Tso at the Women's Forum Global Meeting in Paris, French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said EU countries must overcome their differences and agree to raise taxes on tech giants like Google, Facebook, Amazon and Apple.
