The European Commission likes the
idea of a EU-US summit for talks on trade organized thanks to
Premier Giorgia Meloni's friendly relations with United States
President Donald Trump, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday
on the basis of the analysis of some European officials.
Hopes of agreement to stop Trump's 20% tariffs on EU goods,
which have been suspended for 90 days, have been boosted by
Meloni's positive visit to the White House last week for talks
with Trump.
Both leaders expressed optimism a deal can be reached over
Washington's tariffs at the meeting and Meloni said Trump had
accepted an invitation to come to Rome.
The FT said European Council President Antonio Costa, who has
the job of such meetings, had talks with Meloni about a possible
EU-US summit.
