EU lawmakers and member states reached agreement early Wednesday on implementing the bloc's trade agreement with the United States, according to France 24. The deal ends months of wrangling over the accord.
The agreement comes as President Donald Trump threatens to impose new tariffs by July 4. The European Parliament and EU governments had previously disagreed on implementation safeguards, with negotiations focused on balancing trade certainty for manufacturers against potential US tariff escalation.
The EU deal provides European manufacturers with greater certainty in the US market, though Brussels acknowledged it cannot guarantee Washington will maintain the agreement's terms.
