Against the background of US President Donald Trump, the EU calls for an open dialogue on trade and does not want to work against "against each other," European Commission Speaker Olof Gill said.
"We have to work together to maintain all the opportunities for our people and business. Not against each other. Europe is in favor of dialogue, openness and reciprocity. We are ready for a partnership if the game is on the rules, "he said.
The European Commission also reminded that the volume of transatlantic trade is $ 1.5 trillion a year. "US companies have been able to invest and bring significant income because the EU is a large, united market that is good for business.
It is also a key stimulant of the transatlantic trade of goods and services, which is more than $ 1.5 trillion a year, the largest bilateral trade and investment relations in the world, "explained the European Commission.
