EU set to discuss a limited trade deal with U.S.


(MENAFN) The European Union (EU) Trade Commissioner said the bloc is set to negotiate a limited trade deal with the United States including cars.

She tweeted: "We note that U.S. postpones decision on car tariffs for 180 days. But we completely reject the notion that our car exports are a national security threat."

"Will discuss with USTR (Trade Representative Robert) Lighthizer next week in Paris and Trade Ministers on 27 May," she added.

The U.S. Department of Commerce submitted to President Donald Trump a report related to the car imports query in mid-February, which he said that imposing the auto tariffs remains an option.
