US EditionFrance's Macron says EU-US trade deal 'not the end of it'
FRANCE, JUL 30 – The EU-US deal imposes a 15% tariff on most EU exports and includes $750 billion in US energy purchases and $600 billion in investments, amid criticism of EU negotiating strength.
- On Sunday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen clinched the framework accord with US President Donald Trump, imposing a 15% tariff and committing to $750 billion energy purchases.
- The European Commission brokered the deal in late July 2025 to avert an escalating trade dispute and prevent a punishing 30% tariff that threatened transatlantic commerce.
- New 15% rates exceed prior customs duties but undercut Trump's threatened 30%, impacting sectors relying on exports to the United States.
- Companies reacted swiftly as Maroš Šefčovič described the deal as `the best outcome under very difficult circumstances`.
- Looking ahead, analysts caution U.S. LNG capacity will remain insufficient for Europe's needs and raise questions about long-term trade reliability.

Instead, Europe did nothing and even made some apparent concessions.But notice my wording: apparent concessions. The optics of the Trump-EU deal were humiliating, and optics matter. If you examine the substance, …

Brussels confirms: from tomorrow the US will apply reduced duties to 15% on EU imports. No immediate exemption for wine and liqueurs. Understanding Washington remains political, non-binding
Trump is driving his customs policy further: tariffs will also be imposed on low-value parcels in the future. The US has agreed on customs agreements with several countries. France's President Macron expressed clear criticism of the deal with the EU.
In the absence of the political agreement reached on Sunday by Ursula von der Leyen and Donald Trump being translated into a document, it can be said that 70% of the products exported by the EU to the US will be subject to a 15% tariff in general. That tariff will be paid by US consumers. According to the European Commission, this may mean revenues of up to 80 billion euros for the US Treasury.
