What they are doing is marking everything from Europe with a star. Then they leave to the customers to decide.

That is in my opinion a great Way to do it. We Will have to see how effective it will be.

They are encouraging buying from EU, not avoiding US.

This is implemented by request from costumers.

Why would they do that instead of removing the products from the stores?
