The European Union has swiftly arranged high-level negotiations with the United States following President Donald Trump’s decision to postpone proposed 50% tariffs on EU goods. The delay, extending the deadline from June 1 to July 9, provides a critical window for diplomacy amid escalating trade tensions.
