Merz says EU must craft better trade offer amid global pressure

Original: Germany's Merz says EU to shape better offer as global trade order comes under pressure

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said the European Union needs to shape a better offer as the global trade order comes under mounting pressure. His comments point to mounting concern in Berlin and Brussels over protectionism, tariffs and weakening multilateral trade rules, with the EU under pressure to respond with stronger proposals to defend its economic interests.

Why now: Rising pressure on the global trading system is prompting European leaders to signal a rethink of the EU's trade strategy.
