"The prices of electronics would definitely go up."

The tariffs will "increase prices for everything that's imported, and that includes food."

Trump tariffs would "raise prices even more for consumers."

"I am extremely confident that food will get more expensive."

Trump's tariffs would "increase the cost of US manufacturing."

"Trump is about to make every American pay even more for coffee."

"Tariffs would disrupt supply chains and increase production costs."

This comes as the August 1 deadline for Trump's Liberation Day tariffs was less than a week away, with the U.S. president emphasizing he had no intention to delay it a third time. The U.S. was set to levy a 30% tariff on EU goods in the absence of a deal.

This comes as the August 1 deadline for Trump's Liberation Day tariffs was less than a week away, with the U.S. president emphasizing he had no intention to delay it a third time. The U.S. was set to levy a 30% tariff on EU goods in the absence of a deal.

EU countries agreed to open up their markets to many U.S. exports at a zero tariff rate, while most of their goods, including cars, will face an across-the-board tariff of 15% in the U.S. It remains to be clarified whether the deal applies to pharmaceuticals and semiconductors, and whether steel and aluminium would face a preferential treatment.

While the 15% rate is higher than the 10% tariff that Trump agreed to apply to British goods — and which Brussels had been seeking — it matches the main tariff rate of the U.S.-Japan trade deal and is lower than rates granted to other countries, such as Indonesia and the Philippines.

Furthermore, the EU committed to purchasing $750 billion worth of U.S. energy products and investing $600 billion in the U.S. above current levels, along with buying what Trump described as a "vast amount" of military equipment from the U.S.

If taken together, the European bloc is the biggest trading partner for the U.S. Total trade last year hit $1.97 trillion, with the U.S. net-importing $235 billion worth in goods. Before Trump returned to the White House, EU exporters faced an average 4.8% tariff rate in the U.S.

Other deals

President Trump struck a major victory for the American people as he was able to secure the biggest of all deals with the EU. Now, the previously closed European markets will open up to U.S. goods and the EU agreed to purchase more than a trillion dollar worth of U.S. energy and other investments. This is what fair trade looks like.

This is what fair trade looks like.

While this agreement is being pushed as a historic landmark between the U.S. and Europe's 27-nation bloc, it's hard to judge the actual impact of this rushed trade deal as key aspects such as investment commitments remain vague. For now, both sides are championing the agreement as a win. Yet, that is incompatible with Trump's zero-sum thinking.

There's a 50% chance that the effective U.S. tariff rate on goods being imported into the United States will be 9.23% at the end of 2026, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
