  • Country:
  • Germany

German Economy Minister Katherina Reiche emphasized concerns about the European Union's weakened stance in its trade negotiations with the United States, during remarks made on Tuesday.

Reiche pointed out that the EU is committed to closely monitoring the US as they adhere to the promises set forth in the recently concluded tariff agreement. This new arrangement might impose a heavy economic toll on the EU.

While discussing the $600 billion in planned EU investments in the US, Reiche mentioned that the exact contribution from Germany remains uncertain.
