Starting the day at 9.00, MEPs and Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis will discuss two legislative proposals implementing tariff aspects of the July 2025 Turnberry Agreement with the US. The deal would eliminate most tariffs on US industrial and agricultural goods. Nevertheless, should the US deviate from its commitments, the proposal contains safeguard clauses to protect EU interests. Parliament’s position on the two proposals will be put to a vote at 11.00. Rapporteur Bernd Lange (S&D, DE) is holding a press conference at 13.00.

EU-US trade deal: extracts from the joint debate

Bernd LANGE (S&D, DE), INTA Committee Chair, holds a press conference on EU-US trade relations. Bernd Lange, the INTA Committee Chair on EU-US trade relations, discussed the EU's decision to put on hold legislation that would have reduced tariffs on certain US products. This was in response to President Trump's announcement of new tariffs on European goods, which Lange sees as political pressure to force the EU to sell Greenland to the US. Lange stated that the EU views this as an attack on its economic and territorial sovereignty, and they are prepared to take further retaliatory steps, including immediately implementing a list of tariffs on around 93 billion euros worth of US goods that was previously postponed; and discussing additional measures, such as an "anti-coercion instrument".

This news item shows extracts from the debate on the implementation of EU-US trade deal and the prospect of wider EU trade agreements. MEPs express their concerns raised about the impact on the EU-US security partnership and the need to maintain a strong transatlantic alliance, especially in light of the war in Ukraine, and highlight the importance of the EU's broader trade strategy, including the need to pursue new trade agreements with other partners like Mercosur, Mexico, and Asian countries, in order to reduce dependence on the US market. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and US President Donald Trump announced a deal on tariffs and trade on 27 July, but questions about its implementation details remain.
