No one can make sense of it anymore — only open questions and growing uncertainty for the EU and other US trading partners," Bernd Lange wrote in a post on X.The European Union and the US agreed at Trump's Turnberry golf course in Scotland last July on a deal averting a trade war under which the EU is to remove its import duties on many US products in return for a 15 per cent US tariff on most EU goods exports.The reduced EU duties need clearance from EU governments and the European Parliament.Lange wrote that the terms of the Turnberry agreement and the legal basis on which it was reached had changed and that clarity was now needed.The Greens have also said the vote should be paused.The European Parliament last month suspended its work on the deal in protest at US President Donald Trump's demands to acquire Greenland and threats of tariffs on European allies who oppose his plan, but subsequently decided to put the deal to a vote at the end of February.India delays US trade talks after Supreme Court rejects Trump tariffs: SourceNew 15% US tariff likely to apply to Singapore, says DPM Gan Kim YongTrump hikes US global tariff rate to 15%Source: Reuters/fhSign up for our newslettersGet our pick of top stories and thought-provoking articles in your inboxSubscribe hereGet the CNA appStay updated with notifications for breaking news and our best storiesDownload hereGet WhatsApp alertsJoin our channel for the top reads for the day on your preferred chat appJoin hereAlso worth readingContent is loading...Expand to read the full storyGet bite-sized news via a newcards interface.
