Trump, EU’s Von Der Leyen Cite Conflicting Details on Trade Deal

President Donald Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen appear to differ on some key details in their new trade agreement, underscoring the difficulty they may have in turning this deal into a reality.

The European Union said it would accept a 15% tariff on nearly all its exports to the US. Trump told reporters that the bloc also agreed to open up its “countries to trade at zero tariff.”
