EU-U.S. Trade Deal Faces Backlash in France and Germany: “Economic Fiasco”

The new U.S.-EU trade agreement, which includes 15% tariffs on European imports to the U.S. and massive EU purchases of American energy and weapons, sparked intense political backlash. Marine Le Pen, leader of France’s National Rally, called it a “political, economic, and moral disaster,” while Germany’s BDI industry federation warned the deal could cause major harm to German manufacturing. Critics accuse the EU of “strategic surrender” under U.S. pressure.
