Brussels. The president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and the president of the United States, Donald Trump, reached an agreement this Sunday to resolve their trade dispute over the increase in tariffs, report community sources.

The agreement agreed in Turnberry (Scotland) avoids the threat by the US president who gave Brussels until August 1 or else he would impose a 30% generalized tariff on European productions from that moment on.

It should be remembered that, since last April, the United States has imposed a minimum tariff of 10 percent on European exports, which initially announced at 20%, but reduced by half as a gesture of"truce" to negotiate an agreement with the EU. The specific figures of the agreement have not yet been released.

In his meeting prior to the meeting, the US president already indicated that he did not consider, even if an agreement was reached, that the European Union's trade tariffs would be less than 15 percent, something that the Brussels authorities had already counted on.

Furthermore, the US president had announced that pharmaceutical products would not be part of a trade framework because"we have to manufacture them in the United States."
