Trump accuses EU of drawing his heels to a collective agreement with the USA International trade

Donald Trump said that the EU had drawn her heels “mild” when sealing a collective agreement with the United States and repeated his assessment that his risk of a 50% tariff for imports from the block was an “extremely” satisfactory step.

He praised the EU for the invitation to “set faster meeting dates”, but sparked the fears of a trade war with the region by adding criticism of the EU on Tuesday to explain his social platform of truth.

“I was extremely satisfied with the 50% allocation of tariffs from the European Union, especially since they went slowly (to put it mildly!), Our negotiations with them,” he said.

“I have just been informed that the EU has asked to quickly set the meeting. This is a positive event, and I hope that they will do it,” he told and advised the EU that it would be “very happy” if it followed China by securing a deal.

In another veiled threat to the tariffs, he added that he was authorized to “complete a deal” if the United States was unable to complete a deal or “treated unjust”.

His carrot and stick declaration came when Emmanuel Macron warned the Vietnamese students of the consequences of impulsive superpowers in one fell swoop for Trump's chaotic tariff policy.

During a six -day Southeast Asian tour, the French President said that “everything can change on the impulse of a superpower”.

After Trump's politics in the USA, he said that the tariffs were “based on the side of the bed on which he woke up”.

The remarks come a day after Trump has declined to impose 50% tariffs for imports from the EU from this next weekend and instead delay them to July 9th.

He complained that the talks with the EU “never go anywhere” and the block was “very difficult to cope with”.

After the Mayhem of the weekend, there is indications that the EU political decision -makers are trying to get the European direct investment scale in the United States under applications that go to the industry leaders in order to share their investment plans.

Members of the Confederation of the European company, also known as Businesseurope, an alliance of 42 associations in the entire region, received a survey from the European Commission on Monday. Information about upcoming US investments was asked, whereby the instruction answered as soon as possible, said a source.

A similar note, which, according to information on investment plans, was located for the next five years, was sent to the 59-member European roundtable for industry, which the industry and the tech sector represents. The request for information came with a note with the inscription that the request was personally delivered by the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.

The CEOs of companies, including the Chip Equipment Maker ASML, the German Chemicals Group BASF and the software company SAP as well as the automobile manufacturers BMW and Mercedes-Benz, include members of the Roundtable.

A headline for EU investment plans could prove to be critical of negotiations. In the past month, Trump investments from US companies such as the Chip Maker Nvidia and the pharmaceutical Johnson & Johnson – both a great presence in Europe – advertised as proof that his tariff strategy paid off with the return of jobs to the USA.

The European and Asian stock markets rose on Tuesday, when investors continued to respond positively to Trump's decision to withdraw the threat on Friday on Friday to impose 50% tariffs for EU exports.

Naeem Aslam, the Chief Investment Officer on the London Zaye Capital Markets, told CNBC that the delay of the tariffs triggered a “preliminary risk rally”.

“The EU-US trade dance is a tango with great commitment, the 9th July the next flash point,” he said. The EU dangled with a tariff and “mutual respect” conversations, but he warned the companies to “dress up; this journey is far away”.

The leaders of the EU have hoped for a quick deal to solve the trade war with the USA after Trump said that he would take the 50% tariff that he announced two days earlier after called a “very nice call” from the Leyen.
