The U.S. and the European Union announced that they’ve agreed on a Framework of an Agreement on Reciprocal, Fair, and Balanced Trade.
Among the key terms, the EU intends to eliminate tariffs on all U.S. industrial goods and provide preferential market access for a wide range of U.S. seafood and agricultural goods, including dairy products, fresh and processed fruits and vegetables, soybean oil, pork, and other products.
The U.S. commits to applying the higher of either the U.S. Most Favored Nation Tariff Rate or a tariff rate of 15%, comprised of the MFN tariff and a reciprocal tariff, on originating goods from the European Union.
Among some of the other commitments, the U.S. and EU share one of the world’s largest economic relationships.
European companies commit to invest an additional $600 billion across strategic U.S. sectors through 2028.
They’ll also work to eliminate tariff and non-tariff barriers.
