The next Commission will be centre-right, says Nicola Procaccini of the ECR group
Nicola Procaccini, co-chair of the European Conservatives and Reformists Group, predicts a centre-right European Commission following the upcoming EU elections.
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that Brussels will delay retaliation against U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs as talks with Washington continue. President Trump disrupted months of negotiation, warning the EU of sweeping 30% tariffs unless a deal is reached by August 1. Von der Leyen confirmed preparations for countermeasures are ongoing, but emphasized the EU still prefers a negotiated solution. With $24 billion in U.S. goods at stake, the next few weeks are critical as the tariff standoff risks escalating into a full-blown trade clash.
