⚠️ US–EU Trade Truce: Peace or Pause?
A last-minute handshake just dodged a full-blown tariff war between two of the world’s biggest economies. But don’t celebrate too soon...
✅ What’s been secured:
Key industries like chemicals, aircraft & semiconductors spared from harsh duties ✈️💊💻
A 15% baseline tariff on most EU imports — not ideal, but far better than the looming 30%+ 🚫
💸 The EU’s giant promises:
🇺🇸 $750B worth of U.S. energy imports
💼 $600B in fresh investments into American industries
🛡️ Large-scale defense and military equipment purchases
🧊 But here’s the chill...
Trump isn’t backing down on 50% tariffs for steel & aluminum 🔩⚙️ — a sticking point that still stings.
📉 The big question:
Will this move cool down the markets or just delay another round of tension?
