The United States and European Union have reached a high-stakes trade agreement that imposes a 15% tariff on most EU goods entering the US, averting a threatened 30% tariff and a potential trade war. In exchange, the EU has agreed to purchase hundreds of billions of dollars in American energy and military equipment, though critics question whether these promises are realistic or enforceable. European leaders, especially in France and Germany, have condemned the deal as lopsided and humiliating, arguing that Europe made major concessions for little gain. The pharmaceutical and auto industries are expected to be hit hard, with higher drug and car prices likely for US consumers. While markets initially cheered the avoidance of a trade war, the deal has sparked confusion, political backlash, and concerns about long-term economic impacts on both sides of the Atlantic.
