  • Story Text:EU trade ministers will meet in Brussels on Monday (14 July) after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened on Saturday (12 July) to impose a 30% tariff on imports from the European Union from Aug. 1
    In response, the EU said it will extend its suspension of countermeasures to U.S. tariffs until early August as it aims for a negotiated solution on trade with the United States, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Sunday (13 July). Announcing the extension of the halt on retaliatory measures, von der Leyen told reporters the bloc would "continue to prepare further countermeasures so we are fully prepared". A first package of countermeasures to U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminium that would hit 21 billion euros ($24.6 billion) in U.S. goods was suspended in April for 90 days to allow time for negotiations. The suspension had been due to expire on Monday. A second package has been in the works since May and would target 72 billion euros of U.S. goods, but these measures have not yet been made public and the final list requires approval by member states.
