Former US President Trump agreed to extend tariff negotiations with the EU until July 9th, temporarily averting the risk of escalating trade tensions. Trump had previously threatened to impose high tariffs on EU goods. This extension could provide more time for both sides to reach an agreement, or it could be a negotiating tactic. The future of US-EU trade relations will have a significant impact on the global economy. The extension offers a brief respite but the underlying issues remain unresolved, and the potential for future disputes persists.
