US President Donald Trump said yesterday that a trade agreement struck with EU chief Ursula von der Leyen sets 15 percent tariffs on exports from the European bloc.

He told reporters in Scotland that the EU had committed to investing an extra $600 billion in the United States, as well as purchasing $750 billion worth of energy. “We have reached a deal.

It’s a good deal for everybody,” Trump told reporters after talks with von der Leyen at his golf resort in Turnberry, Scotland. The EU chief also hailed it as a “good deal”.
