The EU-US deal restores stability and predictability for citizens and businesses on both sides of the Atlantic.
It secures continued access for EU exports to the US market, preserving deeply integrated value chains and safeguarding jobs. It provides the basis for continued collaboration.
The deal sets out the parameters of the EU-US trade relationship. It is the first step in a process that will be further expanded over time to cover additional areas and continue to improve market access.
Are you trying to convince us? Or are you trying to convince yourselves? Either way, it's disturbing to say the least.
Pathetic and weak.
I believed that we had some dignity, but now I see the EU submitting to the US. Pathetic.
You are aggravating the military dependency on an unreliable ally who is threatening to invade a European country and friendly nations across the ocean. Weak.
It restored nothing. We should ban america's service, product and buisness.
Also I encourage anyone who reads this to contact the EU MEPs of their country. A list with their email adresses can be found on the EU website. We might still be able to stop this nonsense.
Also people in your government.
"It is the first step in a process that will be further expanded over time to cover additional areas and continue to improve market access."
This is rubbish.
The outcome doesn't need to be whitewashed:
#Trump realized that (esp. Eastern) Europe had a rebound of the #RedScare + therefore could be browbeat into an almost completely unfair + unfairable deal.
The only way to go is to finally have a European Army and to further diversify globally at full speed:
Nonsense ...
Question: Has anyone at the EU thought about just having all that money invested in the EU and other friendly countries instead? Sounds like that might have made up for the few weeks Trump would have been able to keep the 30% tariff before faltering...
Definitely a bad deal for Europe.
Just wait for two weeks until the orange dictator changes the deal and you can start 'negotiating' again. This deal is an embarassment for the EU and the free world.
You sold out. You are not representing me. You are representing the regime of a bully and a liar.
Shame on you.
I know, to never vote for anything EVP adjacent. Anything more I can do to get you far, far away from any kind of power....
You're dangerous
This propaganda is useless we all know why you sign that crap and it's not a positive thing.
> "The EU-US deal restores stability and predictability for citizens and businesses"
Sure.
I can now predict with no doubt that, as an European citizen, I will face a lots of troubles in the forthcoming years.
Thanks to this $&@§# deal…
Did not expect the EU to support America first and the maga crowd at our own expense.
No. Fuck up, traitors!
So saying this deal ist good as it achieves "stability and predictability for citizens and businesses" then I argue, this is the very basic property of each and every agreement. That's what agreements are good for. So why tooting about it?
It looks like it's going to have to be the citizens to do the whole work, here, as the politicians proved to be less than useless.
Borrowing a phrase from the Canadians, elbows up.
The EU-US deal restores stability and predictability for businesses on both sides of the Atlantic while increasing the cost of living for all citizens. Unless, you're being poached to fuel AI by BigTech, then the cost of living doesn't mean anything.
Incredible!
It's ridiculous how you are posting this nonsense for the third time (!) today, desperately trying to sell your surrender and submission to a bully as success.
You have encouraged the orange man to use his strategy again, whenever and wherever he wants to, because he can rely on you to bend over again, ready to be screwed again and again.
And you have turned yourself into a clown by now, trying to hammer home silly, delusional messages while everybody can see how abysmally you've failed.
Please, stop this. You are embarrassing. What happened is humiliating enough for European citizens already, stop making it even worse by exposing us further as a laughing stock.
I am usually very pro-eu, even when you also have pretty dumb ideas sometimes (*cough* Chatcontrol *cough cough*) but this?
This is embarrassing and a disgrace honestly.
This was the time to stand up to Trump. But instead you bend the knee like we're worthless without him.
I would have loved to see a strong and principled EU. However, we saw an EU that talks about ideals instead of living them. An EU that values trade and markets much higher than ethical values when the push comes to shove.
I am so very disappointed.
Hello @matthias_weber!
During the negotiations, the EU has held firm on the things that matter to our citizens and businesses. For example, by liberalising certain trade that is of mutual interest from the US into the EU, our importers and consumers will save around €5 billion in duties each year, while core EU industrial and agricultural sensitivities remain protected.
