German Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil stated on Monday that the European Union's trade deal with the United States requires significant clarification, adding that the bloc had shown weakness during negotiations.
Speaking in Washington before meeting with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Klingbeil emphasized the need for a rapid resolution to the ongoing trade conflict between the European Union and the United States.
"There is a lot to clarify about the European Union's trade deal with the United States," Klingbeil said during his Washington visit.
The German finance minister also expressed concern that the European Union had been "too weak during the negotiations" with the United States.
