U.S. President Donald Trump said he has given the European Union until July 4 to fulfill its commitments under a trade deal agreed in Turnberry, Scotland, or face significantly higher tariffs on its exports to the United States. In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated the EU had promised to reduce its tariffs to zero as part of the agreement, a claim that has not been independently verified by EU officials.

Trump specified that U.S. tariffs on EU cars and trucks could rise to 25% from the current 15% if the conditions are not met by the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence. He described the call with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen as 'great' and confirmed they also discussed Iran's nuclear program.

The White House has not released a formal statement confirming the terms of the alleged agreement, and EU spokespersons have not publicly acknowledged a binding commitment to eliminate tariffs by July 4. The European Commission has yet to issue an official response to Trump's ultimatum.

The U.S. administration is expected to review compliance in early July, with possible tariff adjustments to follow if the EU does not act. The European Commission will convene trade ministers on July 5 to assess the situation and coordinate a response.
