The European Union’s new trade chief Phil Hogan plans to visit Washington on Jan. 14-16 in a bid to mend transatlantic relations impacted by U.S. measures against imports from the bloc and its attacks on the international commercial order.
Hogan will meet with U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer to discuss disputes including an American threat to hit $2.4 billion of French goods with tariffs in retaliation over a digital-services tax in France.
Plus, Hogan figures to be potentially a key player relative to any agricultural negotiations as he previously served as the EU Ag Commissioner.
