European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen met U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday to clinch a trade deal that would likely result in a 15% tariff on most EU goods, but end months of uncertainty for European Union companies.

The United States and the European Union reached a tariff deal Sunday after a brief meeting between President Donald Trump and European Commission Chief Ursula von der Leyen.

A growing number of EU member states are calling for Brussels to trigger already-prepared retaliatory tariffs on almost €100bn of US goods if the talks collapse.
