The European Union and the United States still have significant work to do in resolving ongoing trade tensions, according to EU Trade Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis. Speaking on Friday, Dombrovskis acknowledged that while progress has been made, there are key issues that need further negotiation.

The remarks come as both parties work to address longstanding disputes over tariffs, subsidies, and market access, with particular focus on sectors like steel and aluminum. Dombrovskis emphasized the importance of finding common ground to avoid escalating tensions that could impact the global economy.

The EU and U.S. have made efforts to ease trade frictions in recent years, but challenges remain, particularly as both sides strive to ensure fair competition and address concerns about global supply chains.
