‘Act without delay’: Brussels warns Albania over Trump-linked resort project
A spokesperson for the European Commission has said that Tirana must “refrain from actions that could undermine” its bid to join the European Union, amid concerns that a sprawling coastal development linked to Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner is in breach of EU environmental standards. The European Commission has issued a veiled warning to the Albanian government over a €1.4 billion real-estate project linked to US President Donald Trump’s family, as protests over the plans for an...
How Trump supercharged the EU’s tech independence push
BRUSSELS — Donald Trump may have finally done what years of warnings from Paris and Brussels could not: Convince Europe’s free-market holdouts that relying on American technology is a vulnerability. With his threats toward Greenland, sanctions against international officials and willingness to weaponize Europe’s dependence on American firms, the U.S. president has broken down the final bits of resistance to a French-led push to promote European tech companies at the expense of American...
EU slams Trump’s forced labor tariff as ‘unjustified’
BRUSSELS — The European Commission criticized U.S. plans to impose a new 10 percent tariff on the EU on Wednesday after the Trump administration found that Brussels had failed to ban the import of goods made with forced labor. “The Commission will carefully analyse the preliminary findings of the investigation and will continue engaging with the U.S. Administration. That said, the EU considers tariffs imposed on these grounds to be unjustified,” Deputy Chief Spokesperson Olof Gill said in a...
EU trade lawmakers back compromise on deal with Trump
BRUSSELS — The European Parliament’s trade committee approved by a wide majority a compromise struck with EU governments and the Commission on legislation to implement a trade deal with the United States. Lawmakers backed, by 31 votes to six, with three abstentions, changes to legislation under which the EU agreed to eliminate tariffs on U.S. industrial goods and some agricultural products — a key pillar of the agreement struck last summer at Donald Trump’s golf resort in Turnberry,...
New US tariff plan targets EU and dozens of economies over forced labour imports
The EU and UK are among the economies targeted by a new US tariff proposal linked to forced labour imports, potentially reopening trade tensions just weeks after Brussels reached a deal with Washington. The Trump administration on Tuesday proposed imposing additional tariffs of 10% or 12.5% on imports from 60 economies, including the European Union and the United Kingdom, arguing that their failure to adequately prevent trade in goods made with forced labour unfairly burdens US commerce. The...
Trump never wanted to invade Greenland, US envoy to EU says
U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats to invade Greenland earlier this year were misunderstood, the American ambassador to the European Union said Friday. “It got interpreted that we were somehow threatening Greenland’s territorial integrity,” but “the president never said we were going to invade,” Andrew Puzder told attendees at the Brussels Economic Security Forum. During his second term in office, Trump has repeatedly floated the idea of annexing...
EU plots long game against US digital supremacy
BRUSSELS — The EU is moving to counter American dominance in technology by reaching for one of the oldest tools in its arsenal: industrial strategy. As the European Commission unveiled a plan Wednesday to reduce Europe’s reliance on the foreign technology providers that underpin the modern economy, it was careful to stress that it was not picking a fight with U.S. digital giants. Instead, the tech sovereignty package — motivated in no small part by U.S. President Donald Trump’s weaponization...
How much is EU trade with the US falling?
Exports to the US dropped by nearly a third in the first three months of 2026, as the EU prepares to implement its side of a trade deal with Washington. The impact of Trump's tariffs on the EU market is already becoming tangible, with a negative trade trend second only to that with Iran. In the first three months of 2026, the EU lost 30% of the value (€) in goods exchanged with the US compared with the same period last year, according to Eurostat.
How Donald Trump helped make Spain’s prime minister a ‘rockstar’
MADRID — When Europe’s leaders hold their periodic gatherings in Brussels, Pedro Sánchez isn’t often at the center of media attention. As a rule, when Spain’s 54-year-old prime minister strides down the red carpet below the giant glass oval structure in which the EU’s heads of government meet, only Spanish reporters surge forward to shout out questions about domestic affairs. Correspondents from other countries tend to focus on their own leaders, or chase after French President...
Germany pushes back on US attack over streaming law
Germany has rejected US accusations that its proposed streaming investment law violates the EU-US Turnberry trade pact, asserting it is a cultural policy measure, not a digital trade barrier. The draft legislation mandates that streamers invest at least 8% of their German revenue into local film and television production to avoid penalties. This dispute follows the recent implementation of the transatlantic trade agreement.
