00:00European Union, EU, Chief Ursula von der Leyen and U.S. President Donald Trump have announced
00:11that they will hold an important meeting in Scotland this Sunday. The goal will be to end
00:16the long-standing trade deadlock between the two sides of the Atlantic. AFP reported this news from
00:22Brussels. Dear viewers, if you like this news, please like it and share your comments in the
00:27comment box. To reduce his country's trade deficit, Trump has warned that if an agreement
00:35is not reached by August 1, he will increase tariffs on many countries. The EU is currently
00:41facing a threat of 30% U.S. tariffs and is making strong efforts to reach a deal. However, they are
00:48also prepared to take retaliatory measures if discussions fail. Von der Leyen first announced
00:53the meeting on X, formerly Twitter, writing, After a fruitful phone call with President Trump,
00:59we have decided to meet in Scotland on Sunday to discuss the transatlantic trade relationship
01:04and how to strengthen it. Arriving in the UK on Friday night, Trump told reporters,
01:10I will be meeting with the EU on Sunday and we will work towards a deal. Ursula will also be there.
01:16She is a very respected woman. So we are optimistic about this. He further added,
01:21Let's see if we can reach a deal. The possibility of a deal is 50-50 because there are still about
01:2720 points of disagreement. Trump said, If it's possible, it will be the biggest deal.
01:33This high-level meeting is taking place after months of continuous discussions and positive
01:38talks in recent days. According to European diplomats, under the discussed proposal,
01:44the U.S. could impose a 15% tariff on EU goods, which is equivalent to the deal made with Japan this week.
01:50In addition, some concessions may be given for important sectors.
01:55Von der Leyen's spokesperson Palapino stated that intensive discussions are ongoing at political
02:00and technical levels before Sunday's meeting. She further said, Now the leaders will review the
02:06discussions comprehensively and move towards a balanced solution that will ensure predictability
02:12and stability for businesses and consumers on both sides of the Atlantic.
02:16Final decision in Trump's hands
02:19Since Trump took office, the EU has faced multiple tariffs. Currently, there is a 25% tariff on European
02:28cars, 50% on steel and aluminum, and 10% on general goods. However, if no agreement is reached,
02:35it could increase to 30%. The EU wants to avoid these additional tariffs because they could inflict a new
02:42blow on Europe's recession-hit economy. The EU and the U.S. have annual trade in goods and services
02:48worth 1.6 trillion euros, 1.9 trillion U.S. dollars. EU member states have given the European Commission
02:56the authority to negotiate the agreement, although they also have plans for retaliatory tariffs if
03:02negotiations fail. To maintain pressure, EU states approved a package of retaliatory tariffs on U.S.
03:09goods worth 93 billion euros, $109 billion, last Thursday. If no agreement is reached, these tariffs are
03:17planned to be implemented in phases starting Aug. 7. Most European countries are willing to agree to a 15% tariff.
03:24Most European countries are willing to agree to a 15% tariff. However, diplomats have stated that they want
03:39concessions in several important sectors including aviation, steel, timber, pharmaceuticals, and agricultural
03:46products. In the case of steel, a specific quota may enter the U.S. duty-free under an agreement, while a
03:5350% tax will be imposed if the quota is exceeded. The Trump administration has signed only five agreements so far
04:01with a few countries like Britain, Japan, and the Philippines. Although the EU is optimistic about a deal,
04:09concerns remain about the August 1st deadline. Even earlier this month, EU officials thought they were on the
04:15verge of a deal. Then Trump suddenly complicated the situation again by threatening to raise tariffs to 30%. An EU
04:23diplomat told AFP this week, the final decision is actually in President Trump's hands.
