"This deal grants improved market access for US agri-food products, while EU producers are left facing higher tariffs, now rising to 15%, on key export products. This one-sided outcome is not only unjustified - it is deeply damaging to a sector already under pressure from rising costs, regulatory constraints, and increasing global competition," the union said, calling the agreement with the US a "strategic error." The EU-US trade agreement did not include the promises of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on zero tariffs on a number of agricultural products, the statement said, adding that EU farmers were expecting at least a reduction in tariffs on wine and spirits from the deal, but it was not implemented.
