                                The European Union has signed a trade deal with the United States, agreeing to a 15% tariff after months of negotiations. The EU accepted the deal due to a lack of leverage, and it is seen as skewed in favor of the US. The deal will likely keep the EU's economy in the doldrums, but avoids recession.
