EU reaches compromise to implement Turnberry trade pact with US

EU negotiators reached a compromise to implement the Turnberry trade pact with the United States, aiming to preserve the pact’s framework while giving the Commission power to suspend it if Washington doesn’t cut U.S. steel and aluminum duties by end-2026; a sunset clause would let the agreement expire in 2029, and safeguards allow suspensions if imports threaten EU industries. The text now faces a June plenary vote in Strasbourg, with some MEPs opposed, and no clause to void Turnberry over sovereignty threats; the deal’s fate hinges on a fragile political consensus in the European Parliament.

EU stalls ratification as 15% global tariffs cast shadow over US trade deal

The European Parliament postponed a vote on approving the US–EU trade agreement until it gets clear how President Trump’s new 15% global tariff, announced after a Supreme Court ruling, would interact with the deal’s tariff ceiling. If applied on top of existing duties, the flat rate would breach the negotiated cap, delaying ratification and potentially prompting renegotiation of other bilateral deals. Washington says tariffs will proceed under other laws regardless, while the 150‑day window could offer time to pursue new legal avenues amid sustained trade policy uncertainty for Europe and the US.

The bloc could resort to the Anti-Coercion Instrument and other measures, and a vote previously scheduled for Jan. 26 is now in doubt as the dispute over Greenland’s sovereignty deepens.
