Trump’s trade chief invited to Ireland for EU talks
The October meeting is set to occur as the U.S. ramps up pressure on the bloc’s regulatory framework.
The United States has extended an invitation for Trade Representative Jamie Pressly Greer to attend a meeting of EU trade ministers in Dublin from October 22-23. The gathering, organized by the Irish Presidency of the Council of the EU, aims to provide strategic direction for the bloc's trade policy and delve into ongoing EU trade negotiations.
This marks Greer's second attendance at such a meeting. The EU is currently evaluating its relationship with China and remains on the lookout for the outcomes of a U.S. probe into manufacturing excess capacity. The meeting comes as the U.S. intensifies its pressure on the EU's regulatory framework, a year after a trade war between the two sides concluded with a tariff truce.
