Trump meets with EU president to discuss trade deal.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is set to meet U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday to clinch a trade deal for Europe that would likely see a 15% baseline tariff on most EU goods,

The agreements have been overshadowed by U.S. firms' warnings that the tariffs will affect their bottom lines and prolong uncertainty in the economy.

President Trump has threatened to impose a 30% tariff on imports from the European Union's 27 member countries if no trade deal is reached by Aug. 1.

The deal imposes 15% tariffs on Japanese cars and other goods, one of the more favorable rates. While the start date and other basic elements are still unknown, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned this week that the US would monitor implementation and bump the rate up to 25% if Trump isn’t satisfied.

The EU says its negotiators are working "might and main" on a deal, but the decision rests with US President Trump.

Nearly every member of the European Union supports a plan to hit back against President Trump’s tariffs if no agreement is reached.

The White House factsheet on the trade deal mentions that Japan will also buy 100 Boeing Co. planes as well as US defense equipment worth additional billions of dollars annually. Akazawa said both these pledges were based on existing plans by Japanese airlines and the government, respectively.
