The European Union is taking steps to remove import duties on U.S. products. This provisional agreement comes nearly a year after the U.S. and EU negotiated a trade deal. President Trump grew frustrated with the delays in implementation and threatened to raise tariffs “much higher” if Europe failed to ratify the agreement by July 4. The breakthrough came after more than five hours of negotiations overnight. The EU is now expected to meet that deadline with a final vote happening in mid-June.
