In particular, the U.S. has yet to cut car tariffs<\/a> from to 15 percent from 27.5 percent, as was announced. Further, steel and aluminum remain subject to 50 percent tariffs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll have some engagement at both technical and political levels with our American counterparts, and we keep the work going forward in that sense. I must repeat that we are fully focused and committed to getting that joint statement finalized and ready for you all to read ASAP,\u201d said Gill. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe will ping pong it forth and back until we get to a final text \u2014\u00a0and I hope we can get there soon,\u201d he added, declining when pressed by a reporter to give a firm timeline.<\/p>\n

Importantly, the joint statement is expected to be a political declaration running to a few pages that sets out a road map for further trade negotiations \u2014 and not a full-blown, binding trade agreement. <\/p>\n

These would not exceed the 15 percent baseline, according to an EU fact sheet<\/a> outlining the agreement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In particular, the U.S. has yet to cut car tariffs from to 15 percent from 27.5 percent, as…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":343891,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5174],"tags":[1212,346,2437,32,1396,2000,8954,299,5187,1699,475,12270,809,2661,712,1218,479,1201,6862,1219,49,1220],"class_list":{"0":"post-343890","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-eu","8":"tag-aluminum","9":"tag-cars","10":"tag-companies","11":"tag-donald-trump","12":"tag-dumping-duties","13":"tag-eu","14":"tag-eu-us-trade-talks","15":"tag-europe","16":"tag-european","17":"tag-european-union","18":"tag-imports","19":"tag-liquefied-natural-gas","20":"tag-negotiations","21":"tag-oil","22":"tag-scotland","23":"tag-steel","24":"tag-tariffs","25":"tag-trade","26":"tag-trade-agreements","27":"tag-trade-war","28":"tag-united-states","29":"tag-ursula-von-der-leyen"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115027232946786622","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343890","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=343890"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343890\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/343891"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=343890"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=343890"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=343890"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
