Welcome to the Brussels Edition. I’m Suzanne Lynch, Bloomberg’s Brussels bureau chief, bringing you the latest from the EU each weekday. Make sure you're signed up.

EU ambassadors meet in Brussels today amid growing concern that the trade deal struck by European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen and President Donald Trump in July is on shaky ground.

As Bloomberg reported this morning, the US has demanded concessions that potentially undercut the deal struck in Scotland. Concessions around the bloc’s digital legislation is one of Washington’s main demands.
