US Official Warns EU Airbus Loan Puts Trade Deal at Risk
A tariff truce between the European Union and United States is potentially at risk due to a multibillion-dollar loan approved by the bloc's investment bank for Airbus this summer, President Donald Trump's top trade official said Monday. US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer expressed concern that his office had received "no details about this loan" and pressed for the situation to be "resolved as soon as possible." "I had sincerely hoped that trade-distorting European subsidies to Airbus were a thing of the past," Greer said in a statement.
