EU, US NEAR TRADE DEAL WITH 15% TARIFFS
The EU and US are close to a trade deal setting 15% tariffs on European imports to avoid President Trump’s planned increase to 30% on August 1, sources told the FT. Some products, including aircraft, spirits, and medical devices, would be exempt. The deal would lower car tariffs from 27.5% to 15% and effectively maintain current tariff levels, as EU exporters have faced extra tariffs since April. The EU is still preparing €93B in retaliatory tariffs if no deal is reached by August 1. A US official noted talks remain fluid.
