Excellent news from Geneva, where a first consensus on the Pandemic Agreement was reached last night. We have learnt the lessons of COVID. To beat a pandemic, you need tests, treatments and vaccines. And you equally need solidarity and global cooperation. Statement ↓ europa.eu/!fkNJ9y

Ukraine's resistance is tested daily. Europe will keep supporting the brave Ukrainian army, I told Deputy PM Mykhailo Fedorov. We're working on integrating our defence industries. Ukraine's is a model of innovation and efficiency. So more cooperation between us will also greatly benefit Europe!

Good to be in touch with trusted allies like Canada, I told @mark-carney.bsky.social. The EU remains committed to open, predictable trade. The same principles that enabled success stories like CETA. We discussed deeper cooperation on security & defence and our strong support for Ukraine.

We took note of the announcement by President Trump. We want to give negotiations a chance. While finalising the adoption of the EU countermeasures that saw strong support from our Member States, we will put them on hold for 90 days.

I welcome President Trump’s announcement to pause reciprocal tariffs. It’s an important step towards stabilizing the global economy. Clear, predictable conditions are essential for trade and supply chains to function.

Europe is open for trade and investment, I told the American Chamber of Commerce to the EU. We negotiate, not escalate, to keep EU-US supply chains smooth and strong. We're also stepping up as a competitive powerhouse: simplifying rules, deepening our Single Market. Invest here, benefit here.

Europe is ready to negotiate with the US. We have offered zero-for-zero tariffs for industrial goods. Because we're always ready for a good deal. But we’re also prepared to respond with countermeasures. And protect ourselves against indirect effects through trade diversion ⭣

I deeply regret the US decision to impose tariffs on EU automotive exports. Tariffs are taxes – bad for businesses, worse for consumers, in the US and the EU. The EU will continue to seek negotiated solutions, while safeguarding its economic interests. → europa.eu/!tjdTCy
