Trump eyes Aug 1 trade deals as EU, China talks continue, US Commerce chief says WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Donald Trump will make his trade deal decisions this week even as separate negotiations with China and the European Union continue, U.S. Commerce chief Howard Lutnick said on Tuesday ahead of Trump’s self-imposed Aug. 1 deadline. U.S. and EU officials were still discussing steel and aluminum tariffs as well as digital services regulations following their framework announced on Sunday, Lutnick told CNBC in an interview, adding that talks with China were also "their own thing". "But for the rest of the world, we’re going to have things done by Friday," he said in the interview. Asked about remaining uncertainties surrounding the U.S.-EU agreement, Lutnick said Trump was working "to get things done now." He said pharmaceuticals were a key part of the EU deal so that medicines made in European countries—home to several major drugmakers—would see their products included in the 15% tariff. "It was important for them to have pharmaceuticals be part of the deal at 15% because President Trump is going to come out in the next two weeks with his pharmaceutical policy, and it is going to be higher," he said.

Bessent says EU talks improving, Japan got 15% tariff due to innovation Investing.com -- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Wednesday that U.S. talks with the European Union "are going better than they had been," while noting that Japan secured a lower 15% auto tariff rate by proposing an innovative financing package. In a Bloomberg TV interview, Bessent explained that Japan’s reduced tariff rate came after the country offered a creative solution involving "partnership, equity, and credit guarantees" as part of its foreign direct investment pledge, which he described as "all new capital." When asked if the EU could secure a similar 15% tariff rate instead of the proposed 25%, Bessent emphasized that Japan’s rate was specifically tied to its innovative approach, suggesting the EU would need to propose something comparable. Bessent characterized the EU’s preparation of retaliatory measures as a negotiating tactic, adding "I would do the same if I were in EU place." Regarding China, the Treasury Secretary said the U.S. is "in a good place" and can "move on to bigger talks," noting it’s "not sustainable" for China to make up 30% of global manufacturing. He stressed the U.S. doesn’t want decoupling from China but rather "supply de-risking." On Federal Reserve matters, Bessent said there are "a lot of strong Fed candidates including on the board" and at regional banks, though he wouldn’t discuss specific names or the nomination process for the next chair. He added that the administration is "not in a rush" on Fed chair nomination and confirmed his regular meetings with current Chair Jerome Powell continue. Bessent also criticized the Fed’s analysis of tariffs as "a bit off" and suggested the central bank should conduct an internal review of its policies, possibly using an outside panel similar to what the Bank of England has done in the past.

EU’s Sefcovic: Countermeasures needed if US talks fail Investing.com -- The European Union is prepared to implement countermeasures against the United States if trade negotiations between the two economic powers break down, EU trade chief Maros Sefcovic said Monday. Speaking after a meeting with EU ministers in Brussels, Sefcovic stated that EU member states had reached a consensus on the need for such measures should the talks fail to produce an agreement. Despite this stance, Sefcovic expressed optimism about the ongoing dialogue, saying there is "still a potential to continue the negotiations" with the United States. The trade chief emphasized that any potential deal would require approval from both EU member states and the European Parliament before it could be implemented. Sefcovic also revealed he planned to speak with his American counterparts later Monday to discuss the current state of negotiations.
