Headline: UNCAPTIONED: EU Demands U.S. Honor Trade Deal After Tariff Shake-Up
Caption: EU Demands U.S. Honor Trade Deal After Tariff Shake-Up. The European Commission is urging the United States to stick to last year’s EU–U.S. trade agreement after the Supreme Court of the United States struck down global tariffs introduced by Donald Trump — prompting him to impose new across-the-board levies. Following the court’s ruling, Trump announced temporary 10% tariffs, which were quickly raised to 15%. The move has sparked concern in Brussels, with the Commission demanding “full clarity” from Washington. Under last year’s deal, most EU goods face a 15% U.S. tariff ceiling, with some sectors — including aircraft and spare parts — granted zero tariffs. In return, the EU removed duties on many U.S. products and stepped back from retaliation. EU officials warn that unpredictable tariff changes undermine trust and global market stability. Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic has already raised the issue with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Brussels’ message is clear: a deal is a deal.
