EU trade negotiator says calls with US officials were ‘good’ after Trump extends tariff deadline
- President Trump postponed the threatened tariffs on European goods from June 1 to July 9 amid ongoing trade negotiations in Brussels.
- Trump's tariff threats, aimed at addressing a 157 billion euro goods trade deficit, reflect broader frustration with the EU beyond trade issues.
- EU officials seek a trade deal to avoid 50% tariffs on imports, proposing a 'zero for zero' deal removing tariffs on industrial goods including autos.
- Economists warn 50% tariffs could shrink the Eurozone economy by up to 1% next year and cut business investment by more than 6%, while uncertainty paralyzes businesses.
- Despite increased U.S. LNG and defense purchases motivated by the Ukraine conflict, the EU remains firm on regulatory rules, signaling limited room for compromise.
