USTR Warns EU Fines and Airbus Loan Threaten Transatlantic Trade Stability

Jamieson Greer said the EU’s recent moves against US companies and its loan to Airbus risk disrupting transatlantic trade talks.
The warning centered on EU fines targeting US technology firms and what Washington described as support for Airbus that could undermine constructive negotiations.
Greer said “a real dialogue can only take place during a ceasefire,” framing the EU actions as a direct threat to continued trade stability between the two sides.
The statement adds fresh Trump administration pressure on the EU as broader US-EU trade relations remain vulnerable to disputes over tech regulation and industrial support.
