EU companies and exporters must have fair treatment, predictability, and legal certainty,\u201d the European Commission said in a Saturday statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA deal is a deal. As the United States\u2019 largest trading partner, the EU expects the U.S. to honour its commitments set out in the Joint Statement \u2013 just as the EU stands by its commitments,\u201d the commission added, referencing a deal struck between the U.S. and EU last summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump and Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced a trade deal last July setting tariffs at 15 percent for European goods. The deal also includes the EU purchasing $750 billion worth of energy from the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The agreement was notably lower than a 30-percent tariff the president had threatened for the EU and avoided a trade war between the EU and U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Supreme Court on Friday rejected most of Trump\u2019s expansive tariffs, a hallmark of his administration\u2019s economic strategy. Throughout his presidency, the president\u2019s tariff policy has rattled global markets, increased economic uncertainty and strained relationships with longtime American allies including the EU and Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Friday\u2019s 6-3 decision struck down the president\u2019s expanded use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act for imposing tariffs on almost every country. The law, from the 1970s, lets the president \u201cregulate\u201d imports when needed in response to national emergencies that pose an \u201cunusual and extraordinary\u201d threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Saturday, Trump announced he was raising a newly imposed global tariff to 15 percent after reviewing the Supreme Court\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One day later, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said countries need \u201cclarity\u201d on the future of their trade relationships with the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When reached for comment, the White House directed The Hill to a post from Trump in which he said that \u201cAny Country that wants to \u2018play games\u2019 with the ridiculous supreme court decision, especially those that have \u2018Ripped Off\u2019 the U.S.A. for years, and even decades, will be met with a much higher Tariff, and worse, than that which they just recently agreed to.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>European Union (EU) leaders said over the weekend that they will not accept an increase in U.S. tariffs in the wake of a Supreme Court ruling against some of President Trump\u2019s most sweeping tariffs. \u201cThe Commission will always ensure that the interests of the European Union are fully protected.
