[The EU agreement is "clouded with doubts", the Italian Prime Minister speaks out, and tariff details become the focus] ⑴ Italian Prime Minister Meroni welcomed the trade agreement between the United States and Europe, but at the same time stressed that the best judgment cannot be made before seeing the details. ⑵ The agreement imposes a 15% import tariff on most EU goods. Meroni believes that if this rate includes previous tariffs, it is "sustainable." ⑶ Italy is one of the EU's major exporters to the United States, with a trade surplus of more than 40 billion euros. ⑷ Meroni pointed out that there are still several key elements missing in the agreement, especially in sensitive industries such as pharmaceuticals and automobiles. ⑸ Italy is seeking clear information on potential exemptions for agricultural products and hopes to better understand the terms of investment and natural gas purchases. ⑹ The Italian government is ready to launch support measures at the national level and calls on the EU to take corresponding actions to help affected industries. ⑺ This position shows that although the agreement has been reached, its specific implementation details and the impact on different industries are still the focus of market attention.
