New USA-EU trade agreement
2025-07-28
[PBS] The United States and the European Union agreed on Sunday to a trade framework setting a 15% tariff on most goods, staving off — at least for now — far higher imports on both sides that might have sent shockwaves through economies around the globe.
Did the reporter mean far higher import tariffs?
---------------------------------------
a lot of details, e.g. EU investment in USA, zero tariff on Ag products --- perhaps a lot of other stuff not meant to be understood

#3  additional U.S. energy purchases was actually over the next three years — and would help ease the dependance on natural gas from Russia among the bloc’s countries.

Win-Win-Win!!!

#1  I'm sure it meant to say 'far higher import tariffs' not 'far higher imports'.
