Exceptional EU Market Access for Exporters from USA After the “zero-for-zero” Trade Deal

On July 27, 2025, President Trump and the European Union finalized a landmark trade agreement that removes nearly all tariffs on U.S. industrial exports to Europe. According to the official White House statement, this agreement unlocks 0% duty access to the EU market for American goods in key strategic sectors , a deal that reshapes the export landscape for U.S. businesses.

If it comes to force, the deal will not be just another policy tweak , it will be a once-in-a-generation trade breakthrough.
