Strasbourg: The EU reached a deal Wednesday to implement its side of a nearly year-old trade pact with the United States, a major step towards ending a roller coaster of transatlantic tariff battles with President Donald Trump.
Hailing the "good news", German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said it showed the bloc was "delivering on its commitments" and bringing "security and stability" for European businesses, which faced a new Trump tariff threat unless the deal kicks in by July 4.
