The United States and the European Union have officially announced the finalization of a significant trade framework aimed at establishing reciprocal, fair, and balanced trade. As part of this agreement, the EU will open its $20 trillion market while the US will maintain a cap on tariffs for European automobiles and medicines at 15%. Key components of the deal include a reduction of proposed tariffs on pharmaceuticals, previously suggested by Trump, which faced backlash. The agreement also stipulates that US high tariffs on EU autos will remain until the EU lowers its levies on American goods. The deal is being viewed as a critical step toward rebalancing trade ties and promoting economic cooperation between the two large economies.
