EU Parliament votes this week on tariff deal as Trump's July 4 deadline looms

The European Parliament holds its final vote on legislation implementing the EU-US trade framework, the last procedural step before a 15% tariff rate replaces existing structures on July 24. Trump set a July 4 deadline for ratification, threatening higher tariffs on EU exports if the deal stalled. The Council and Parliament struck a deal on implementation May 20, compressing legislative timelines under Washington's pressure.
