The United States and European Union have reached a major trade agreement that imposes a 15% tariff on most EU goods entering the US, averting a threatened 30% tariff by President Trump. The deal also includes massive European commitments to purchase US energy and military products, though EU officials admit they cannot guarantee the promised investment levels. While the agreement brings relief to markets and avoids a full-blown trade war, many European leaders and commentators see it as a lopsided capitulation to US demands. Critics, especially in France, have called the deal a 'dark day' and 'submission,' arguing it undermines European solidarity and economic interests. Despite the controversy, the deal provides short-term stability for businesses but raises questions about the future of transatlantic relations.
