The Brussels announced today that they suspend countermeasures in the customs Donald Trump’s duties due to the trade agreement between the United States and the European Union.
During the last few months, the Commission had prepared a list of US products that would impose duties if the US and the EU did not reach an agreement.
This list included goods worth 93 billion euros: soybeans, airplanes, cars, etc.
After months of very difficult negotiationsBrussels and Washington sealed in late July, a 15% customs deal based on European products arriving in the United States.
“The Commission has begun the necessary legal procedure today to suspend the implementation of our European countermeasures,” the European Commission spokesman All Gill said today.
The European Commission, however, did not rule out the possibility of reinstating these response measures in the event of a commercial BRA-de-Fa-Ferry with the Trump government.
“We put (these measures) in the fridge, but we can always get them out again,” explained a European official who asked not to be named.
