The United States and the European Union are preparing to impose tit-for-tat tariffs on each other’s products, the latest escalation in a 14-year fight over government aid given to Boeing and European rival Airbus.
“The World Trade Organization finds that the European Union subsidies to Airbus has adversely impacted the United States, which will now put Tariffs on $11 Billion of E.U. products!” President Trump said in a tweet on Tuesday morning. “The E.U....

Ladies and gentlemen,
I'd like to warmly thank today's participants for the insightful discussion about the future of work.
One clear message from the Conference is that ‘the future of work is already today'.
This means that when we talk of the ‘future of work', if we want to be correct in our English grammar, we should really be speaking about the ‘present continuous of work'.
It's not a question of saying ‘labour markets will change'. Rather, it's already clear...

Last week I received a letter from Prime Minister May requesting a further extension of the Article 50 period, until 30 June 2019. In her letter the Prime Minister states that the UK government's policy remains to leave the EU in an orderly way, and that it is therefore now seeking a consensus across the House of Commons on the right way forward. She also adds that, if the UK were an EU member on 23 May 2019, it...

So...

Ladies and Gentlemen,
It is a pleasure to be in Bucharest today to conclude this Eurofi High Level Seminar. I am grateful to D. Wright and D. Cahen for offering me the opportunity to give this keynote speech... but perhaps less grateful about the theme they asked me to address: “Opportunities...

I am here to talk to you about the scenario in which the UK would leave the EU without a withdrawal agreement, and our preparation for this eventuality for EU customs.
Before getting to the heart of the matter, I would like to make several political reminders.
First, the European Commission has never wanted Brexit. We said the day after the referendum in June 2016 that we regret...

President Tajani,
Honourable Members of this House,
The developments in Westminster over the past days have convinced me of what I already knew. The best way forward is the ratification of the Withdrawal Agreement. It has already been agreed by the Government of the United Kingdom, endorsed by this House as well as by the European Council.
In its decision 10 days ago, the European Council paved the way for an extension of the Article 50 negotiation period until...
