Trump said there is hope to reach a trade protocol with India and the EU, but it is too early with Canada.

On July 17, Jin10 reported that U.S. President Trump said in an interview on Wednesday that a trade agreement between the U.S. and India is within reach, and an agreement with the EU may also be possible, but it is still unclear whether an agreement can be reached with Canada. When asked which trade agreements are imminent, Trump said, “We are very close with India, and… we might reach an agreement with the EU.” This remark by Trump comes as EU Trade Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis visited Washington on Wednesday for tariff discussions, while an Indian trade delegation arrived in Washington on Monday for a new round of talks. “The EU has been very tough in the past, but now they are becoming very friendly. They want to reach an agreement, and it will be very different from the agreements we have made over the years,” he added. When asked about the prospects of reaching an agreement with Canada, Trump stated, “It’s still too early to say.”
