POLITICO Europe @politico.eu

The EU has admitted it doesn’t have the power to deliver on a promise to invest $600 billion in the United States economy, only hours after making the pledge at landmark trade talks in Scotland.

See the eu in not a communist state so it doesn’t decide what it’s citizens invest in (mostly)

Le traité signé par Von Der Leyen va à l’encontre des intérêts européens sur le plan économique et militaire pourquoi acheter des armes américaines alors que UE doit éviter la soumission et la dépendance à un pays traître Trump ne songe qu’à spolier l’UE pour U.S. great again grosse erreur VDLeyen

While Rome burns 🔥, Mr. Trump and Ms. von der Leyen effortlessly transitioning between carefully choreographed renditions of the Tango and the Macarena. Nero would be as much impressed as Ms. Meloni is jealous.

If there is no vote, there is not trade agreement. The Commission is like an embassador, it cannot force any country, we are seeing that Van der Leyen has not understood that at all.

Detail of the vote, they need 15 states/27 and these states represent 65% of the population (exception if Germany France+ 3e in opposition is not enough, 4 countries at least) Calculator : www.consilium.europa.eu/fr/council-e...

It would be much cheaper just to buy US politicians. Trump is buyable for 400M USD, for example.

This is the 3rd time now #Trump has carnival barked about a "#tarriff agreement that somehow isn't quite right from the perspective of the otherside. And besides the incompetent #Trump team didn't know about EU limitations here on what power they have as negotiators? What a shock.

These deals are supposed to go through Congress. Congress is supposed to do the money, but this sounds like words that will drift away on the mists of time anyway.
