European Parliament: Freezes the Process of Ratifying the EU-US Trade Agreement

The European Parliament is expected to freeze the process of ratifying the trade agreement between the European Union and the United States, following a decision by the US Supreme Court that declared Donald Trump's tariffs illegal. This decision has raised concerns in the EU, which is seeking further clarification from the US government regarding its new tariff program. The suspension of the ratification process is an indication of the EU's dissatisfaction and the need to safeguard its interests.
