(Reuters) – European Union negotiators are closing in on a trade deal with U.S. President Donald Trump that would cement higher tariffs than those granted to the UK, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday.
Brussels is ready to sign a temporary “framework” agreement that would set Trump’s “reciprocal” tariffs at 10% while talks continue, the newspaper reported.
Reuters could not immediately confirm the report.
