White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett said on Monday that trade negotiations with the European Union, Canada and Mexico remain active, signalling Washington’s willingness to keep talking despite heightened tariff tensions. His remarks echoed those of EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič, who earlier the same day confirmed that discussions with the United States would continue but stressed that the bloc must be "prepared for all outcomes" following the Biden administration’s recent announcement of a 30% tariff on a range of European imports. Talks with Canada and Mexico are unfolding in parallel, as Ottawa and Mexico City seek exemptions from existing and proposed U.S. duties while pressing for longer-term solutions to recurring disputes. No timeline for concluding the negotiations was provided by either side.
